It was a little over year ago, when the Helen and Bill Geyer Family opened its doors for the first time. Now, after being closed for over a week in the aftermath of the tragic murder of Monica Paul, interfaith clergy will gather on Monday for a re-dedication ceremony of the Y. Rev. Brandi Drake of Grace Presbyterian Church writes...
I wanted the community to know that on Monday morning at 7:30, there will be a brief re-dedication ceremony of the Geyer Family Y before they re-open. It will be led by inter-faith members of the Clergy throughout Montclair. The purpose of this time will be to re-claim the building for the purpose intended: the love and strengthening of children and families. We wanted to provide the Y staff and families with a ritual to begin the week from a place of strength. There will be light refreshments following the ceremony, which will take place in the parking lot.
