REVISED HOMEGOING PLANS- March 16, 2020

This is heartbreaking for me but due to the current situation around the country including Kansas City which has generated health and travel concerns, there is a need to scale back the funeral activities for our beloved Rev. Jonathan K. Wright.  We need to limit the number of people congregating  so  the wake is converted to a  viewing and the Burial Service will be limited to  family and RHM church in a much smaller venue.  The funeral  home has Informed that they will be strictly managing numbers (50 max) to abide by official guidelines. 

We will be scheduling Memorial Celebration  in late Summer after we are back to normal.     I hope everyone can join us then in Kansas City to pay tributes and celebrate Jonathan’s life.   I will give enough notice to allow your planning.  

 

The new plan is:

 Friday, March 20, 2020  

Viewing  (Not a formal program ): 7-9:30 pm

Revival of Hope Ministries

6002 Anderson Avenue, KC MO 64123

 

Saturday, March 21, 2020
