In celebration of the many ways Rev. Heather has tended to us during times of great challenge, has helped us connect deeply with our roots and nurtured us into a time of renewed growth, we wish to honor her ministry with a gift.

A large and beautifully landscaped pollinator garden will be planted in the back of the church and will include a permanent bronze plaque. The illustration above is by WUS member, Julie Khuen, who designed and will oversee the garden’s completion. We will also present Heather with some gifts to take with her.  

Please contribute to these gifts as you are able. You may send a check to the office (478 Main Street, Winchester MA 01890) with the note ‘Heather Garden’ in the memo line.

You may also donate electronically HERE. You may select to donate through Breeze or PayPal. Whichever platform you choose, please identify the gift by selecting ‘Heather Garden’ in the pull down menu. 

Slide Show – We are collecting digital photos to create a slideshow of Heather’s time with us. Please upload any photos you wish to share HERE. This link will take you to a DropBox folder where you can upload a photo file or folder with multiple photos. You may also email photos directly to fritzie.nace@gmail.com . 

Please take a moment to share your thoughts and best wishes to Rev. Heather by signing a card, entering a handwritten note in a journal (which will be available in the Symmes Room starting on May 5), or recording a short video clip that we’ll watch together at the special potluck luncheon after service on June 9th.
