As we come to the horrifying marker of 100,000+ American deaths to the coronavirus, an unprecedented group of 100 national faith leaders--from Christian, Jewish, and Muslim traditions, are acting together. These leaders, along with the bipartisan U.S. Conference of Mayors, who represent over 1,400 mayors across the country, have joined in announcing June 1st as a National Day of Mourning and Lament. Interfaith leaders and mayors across the nation will seek to transcend our divisions and call us to lament, mourn, and honor the dead.

This is a milestone that we must not pass by quickly or easily. The call is to stop; weep; mourn; honor; and lament, which is to feel and bear great grief and sorrow, and reflect upon it.

Cornwall Congregational Church has decided to mark the 100,000+ lives lost to the coronavirus at 1:00pm on June 1st with the ringing of bells. Please join us by ringing the bells of your House of Worship, or holding a moment of silence for our brothers and sisters lost to this disease. If you like, we welcome you to come and help ring our bells in long, slow cadence for the lost.
