Pastor Kimbrel Johnson joined us on the Morning Show to talk about their December 23rd 2pm Service of Remembrance for parents honoring children who have died.  The holidays can be tough on folks, and Kimbrel reminds us to listen to those who are suffering.  She brings up an important point about saying the names of those who have died.
