Today, we hold close the memories of the 20 beautiful children and 6 devoted educators whose lives were tragically taken on December 14, 2012, at Sandy Hook Elementary. We honor their joy, their legacies, and the families who continue to shine their light into the world.

From this unimaginable loss, Safe and Sound Schools was created with a single, steadfast mission: to protect every school, every student, every day. That commitment remains at the center of everything we do—guided by the enduring love and inspiration of Josephine Gay, Emilie Parker, and all the precious lives we remember.

We invite you to learn more about each family and the extraordinary ways they continue to honor their loved ones at MySandyHookFamily.org.

ProgressiveChristianity.org Mourns the Death of Bishop John Shelby Spong

There are few theological giants who shape the way that entire generations relate to their sacred texts. Bishop John Shelby Spong, through his intelligence, kindness, and love of scripture, did just that. Bishop Spong showed Christians who were ready to give up on their faith an authentic, intellectually honest approach to biblical interpretation that allowed many to remain engaged in their faith communities while demanding more theological rigor from both the pews and the pulpit.

Bishop Spong was particularly closely associated with ProgressiveChristianity.
org. He served as an advisor to us for many years and helped us to shape the Progressive Christian Movement. When he retired from writing his newsletter, now called Progressing Spirit, he entrusted ProgressiveChristianity.org with its care and trajectory. His life’s work was pivotal to empowering Christians to delve more deeply into their questions and not to accept easy answers and half-truths. His impact on the theological landscape of Christianity cannot be overstated.

While Christians all over the world mourn his death, Bishop Spong wrote, “I prepare for death by living.” He knew whatever waits for us beyond this life is beyond our knowledge or control, so we must focus on living the best life we can in the here and now. His life was well-lived and genuine. “Death is ultimately a dimension of life through which we journey into timelessness,” he reminded us. He has now transitioned into timelessness and will be deeply missed.
