One of our therapists has passed. Rest in peace, dear comrade. https://www.facebook.com/share/p/1VFFnNsqmR/

Dr Baker’s impact reached far beyond the walls of our church. Through his love, wisdom, compassion, and commitment to serving others, he touched countless lives and left a lasting imprint on our community.

We invite you to join us at Salt & Light Church – Southwest Campus for two meaningful gatherings:

A Night of Music & Fellowship | an evening dedicated to reflection, worship, and celebrating the life of Dr. Baker.

Celebration of Life Service | as we come together to honor his journey, legacy, and the many lives he impacted.

We look forward to coming together as a church family to remember an incredible servant of God.

“By returning to inner silence, solitude, and stillness in these few minutes a day, your amygdala will be smaller. We know now you will be much less reactive and forgetful. We know you will have a larger insula, more gray matter, and overall much smoother connections to your very human pre-frontal cortex. You will have greater awareness and insight and focus and even compassion.” -- Carolyn Oates

It is in the pause, even brief turns, that our brains change and our feelings find meaning and our outlok expands. Jesus leads by example.
