We are mourning the loss of a great hero, liberator and worldwide icon, Nelson Mandela. He was the ultimate teacher and leader who inspired so many people around the world. To honor Nelson Mandela, Sunset Lawn Chapel of the Chimes in Sacramento, CA is hosting a memorial book for the public to write messages and pay tribute to him. We hope this small gesture will bring together our community to celebrate Mandela’s legacy. The book will be available to the public from December 9th – 31st from 10 a.m. – 5 p.m. dailyand will be shared with Mandela’s family and constituents.
