Event Details
As of October 31st, 269 people without a place to call home have died in OC since the beginning of 2025, with 43 who died in the City of Orange.
Join us and representatives from faith traditions as we remember the lives of our unhoused brothers and sisters lost in the streets of Orange County in 2025. The service includes reflections from religious leaders and the reading of the names of the lives lost. For each name, a candle is carried across the sanctuary space and placed alongside the others, becoming a stark reminder of the magnitude and tragedy. Last year, more than 400 names were read.
