Light Up a Memory

tree1

Our “Memory Tree” is ready to be decorated again – with an array of beautiful lights that people “purchase” in memory of or in honor of a loved one. A contribution of $10.00 entitles the honored one to a light and the inscription of his/her name in a special “Memory” book, which will be on display in our Gathering Space. Each $10.00 also entitles the donor to a lovely card to send to the recipient or the family of a deceased honoree.

Participants are also invited to the joyous tree lighting ceremony, with music by our choir and a reception, with delicious refreshments in our Gathering Space, after the 5:00 p.m. Mass on Saturday, December 14.

The memory lights will twinkle on the tree until the feast of Epiphany (“Three Kings”) on January 6.
