The Spokane Valley will be the site of two worship celebrations on Monday to observe Memorial Day and remember those who have died. There will be a Mass said by the Rev. James Mangan at 10 a.m. Monday at St. Joseph Cemetery, 17825 E. Trent. People are asked to bring their own chairs. Refreshments will be served after Mass.

If it is raining, the Mass will be held at St. Joseph’s Catholic Church, 4521 N. Arden Road.

Christ Lutheran Church will host a prayer vigil from 4 to 10 p.m. Monday. There will be open prayer time from 4 to 7 p.m. and all are invited to stop by and pray in the sanctuary for any length of time. People wishing to sign up for a 30 minute block of time may call the church office at 266-0773 to sign up.
