Lights of Love
Light up your holiday season with a gift of love.  Lights of Love, is a special way to remember a lost loved one, honor someone special, or show your appreciation for a friend, teacher or co-worker.

Through Lights of Love, each contribution of $5.00 or more will dedicate a light to shine as a tribute to that special person during the Christmas season. A white light will shine as a memorial for a person who has passed away.   A colored light will shine in honor of those that we are blessed to still have with us.  A ribbon and card with the name of the person to which you are paying tribute will be attached to the tree located in the church.  A scroll will also list the names of all the dedications.

The parish will gladly send a card to those you request, letting them know that a gift has been made in their honor or in memory of their loved one.  The amount of the gift will not be disclosed.  You may sponsor as many lights as you wish – they make meaningful holiday gifts.  All proceeds will benefit St. Joseph School.

You may pick up dedication forms at St. Joseph Church, St. Joseph School, 217-523-6597 or by email bretscher@sbcglobal.net  before December 20th.  If you have any questions, please contact Michelle Bretscher 544-0561.
