Dr. King’s message of dignity, service, and peaceful change continues to inspire us to care for one another and to stand for what is right, even in difficult times. His belief that “life’s most persistent and urgent question is, ‘What are you doing for others?’” reminds us of the importance of serving our community with empathy and respect.

At Frye Chapel, we embrace the traditions that bring families together and help communities celebrate faith, hope, and unity. As the Christmas season continues, many in our region begin the beloved celebration of Las Posadas, a nine-day tradition that reflects hospitality, compassion, and the spirit of togetherness. This tradition reminds us of the importance of opening our hearts and homes, supporting our neighbors, and welcoming one another with kindness.

This deeply meaningful service ensures that no one in our community is forgotten in death, including those who leave behind no family or whose loved ones do not have the means to provide burial services.

Frye Chapel is humbled to partner with the Imperial County Public Administrator, assisting in the process of preparing these decedents for interment. The Public Administrator’s Office provides an essential service, offering support and burial assistance to some of the most vulnerable members of our community.

Their work and this ceremony remind us that every life matters, and every story deserves to be honored.

We are grateful to stand alongside the county and our community partners in ensuring that compassion and dignity are extended to every individual.
