In grief, we often want to run and distract ourselves, but it follows us. The brave act of healing is to face the hurt, acknowledge the loss, and sit with the sadness. This isn’t about dwelling in sorrow but allowing yourself to feel and nurture your wounds gently. Healing means moving through grief, one moment at a time.

On Saturday, December 20, 2025, the Wilson Kratzer Civic Center Chapel team had the privilege of supporting a community outreach event at McGlothen Temple Church of God in Christ.

Through the generosity of the Carriage Cares Foundation, we were able to contribute $1,000 toward an initiative that helped provide 250 coats and hundreds of toys to families in need during the holiday season. In total, more than 300 families were served through this effort.

We are grateful for the opportunity to partner with organizations that make a tangible difference and proud to represent Carriage in moments like these.

Thank you to the Carriage Cares Foundation and everyone involved for helping make this outreach possible and for bringing warmth and joy to so many families this holiday season.
