An evening of light and remembrance was celebrated December 9th, at our Community Candle Lighting.  We worked together to create a special wreath, as everyone decorated ribbons with messages, memories and wishes and tied them to a circle of evergreens.  Our Circle of Light ceremony started as we lit five tall candles representing grief, courage, memories, love, and hope. Children and adults took turns lighting individual candles, each honoring the life of a person who has died but who is remembered in this season of light, for “the light your loved one brought to your life.”

Thank you to all who joined with us this holiday season for our Circle of Light ceremony. Wishing everyone a hopeful and peaceful New Year!
