Music • Food • Fun • Inspiration • Community Care
Serve The City is a coalition of over 40 area congregations and ministries hosting the Healing the Heartland Festival.
Besides Healing we may also wish to Remember and this moving tribute to the Spirit of Cedar Rapids during those trying times. created by Kathy Farrand is one way to do that.
regret that it is necessary to download a 16 Meg EXE file so it will be difficult for those with dialup modems and I do not know how it will play for anyone with that type of connection. Sorry
Since the time I first put this video slideshow up, I have also discovered a equally moving Youtube Video.
