Sedona Wind Phone Dedication (Saturday, April 18, 2026 11:00am)

Sedona UMC invites you to join us in the outdoor courtyard by The New Room for the dedication of the Sedona Wind Phone. Originating in Japan, the Wind Phone concept is now a worldwide phenomenon meant to honor lost loved ones, and to create a place of remembrance, comfort and connection. This phone will never ring, and yet it connects our hearts and minds through love, and sends our messages beyond the veil. It is meant for those whose hearts cry out to speak with a loved one, to say hello or goodbye and to speak of the past, the present and the future.​​
