Homeless Memorial Service

Aurora’s Annual Homeless Memorial Service will take place at Trinity United
Methodist Church on Thursday, December 5, 2024, at 5:30 pm.

EVANSVILLE – Each year, Aurora sponsors the Homeless Memorial Service in partnership with the National Homeless Person’s Memorial Day. This year, the event will take place on
Thursday, December 5, 2024 at 5:30 PM, and will be held in the sanctuary at Trinity United
Methodist Church located at 216 SE 3rd Street.

Since the Memorial Service began in 1990, Aurora continues to ask that we pay our respects to individuals who have lost their lives while experiencing homelessness in our area. While gathering, the Evansville community will recognize and reflect on the five individuals who have passed away in 2024 as they become part of the 175 lives lost in the past 34 years. The service includes a candle-lighting ceremony, moments of personal reflection, and a time to remember those who are often left behind or forgotten.

Aurora will share a live stream for the service on their Facebook page as well.
Aurora thanks Trinity UMC, all those participating, and our community partners for working
together to protect, shelter, and house the men, women, children, and seniors experiencing
homelessness in Evansville.
