St. Vincent’s Hospice Light Up A Life St. Vincent’s Hospice invites you to join its online “Light Up a Life” dedication service on Sunday 28th November at 4.30pm. At the end of each year, Light up a Life offers an opportunity to reflect on those who are no longer with us, the good times spent with our loved ones and to take time to cherish their memory. It’s an opportunity for our community members to come together to remember and celebrate the lives of those that made a difference in their lives whether they were cared for by St. Vincent’s Hospice or not. Sadly we are unable to gather at the Hospice again this year, but we warmly invite residents of Renfrewshire to join us from the comfort of their own home for our virtual Light up a Life service on Sunday 28th November @4:30 pm, details of which are available on our Facebook page - www.facebook. com/StVincentsHospice The family-friendly, non-religious, service will include music, readings and reflections to help us remember our loved ones and there will be a switch on of hundreds of lights on the magnificent tree in the Hospice garden in Howwood. The lights will shine out for miles across the surrounding countryside every night during the winter – a beacon of hope and encouragement for everyone. Those who wish to can also dedicate a virtual star in memory of someone special via the St. Vincent’s Hospice website - www.svh.co.uk and anyone wanting to make a donation to the work of the hospice can also do so via the website.
