COVID-19 has not allowed us to honor the lives of those whom we lost and love.
We invite you to pause and honor your loved one(s) and others lost in this tragedy. All you need to participate is this booklet or the version available on the website, a candle, and the time. This guide includes a sample candle lighting guide for you to consider.
You can take these steps alone, gathered with loved ones, or on a particular day in coordination with neighbors in your community. You can even add the Candle Lighting to an activity or event you already had scheduled like a gathering for your family, church members, or friends.
