SUMMARY:Celebration of Light & Love Tree Lighting
DESCRIPTION:As the holiday season approaches\, friends of Bethell Hospice are encouraged to buy a light to honour someone special\, or in memory of someone they loved.  A light is illuminated for each person remembered\, and their name read aloud at our Tree Lighting ceremony.  As we emerge from the significant impacts brought about by the pandemic\, this beautiful tradition will mean more than ever.  Please plan to join us to remember family and friends\, and make your gift to ensure that Bethell Hospice care is available for all future families in need \nThis year\, we hope that pandemic protocols will have relaxed sufficiently to allow us to hold our traditional Tree Lighting event in person.  Mark your calendars for Thursday\, December 9 at 7:00 p.m.\, and join our Nurses\, Personal Support Workers\, Spiritual Care Coordinators and other families for our Tree Lighting event at Bethell Hospice.  Plans are also underway to offer an online version of our Tree Lighting event for those unable to attend. \nEvery gift matters. Please make yours today at https://bhf.akaraisin.com/ui/LightandLove2021
