Gwinnett Medical Center illuminating Lights of Love and Remembrance in ceremony Dec. 8.

 

Remember a loved one or honor someone special with Lights of Love and Remembrance at Gwinnett Medical Center-Lawrenceville by making a donation to the Parish-Faith Community Nursing program at GMC.

The Lights of Love and Remembrance ceremony is scheduled for 7 p.m. Thursday, Dec. 8, in the hospital’s main lobby. There will be a special performance of holiday music by the First Baptist Church of Lawrenceville. Information will be available about the caring health ministry that parish and congregational nurses provide to Gwinnett County and surrounding areas.

A luminary will be lit in honor or memory of a person for each $20 donation made to the Lights of Love and Remembrance Fund. A meaningful moment of silence will be observed during the program for those being remembered.

Donations directly benefit the Parish Nurse program. Parish nurses of congregations in partnership with GMC may request funds through the program for use in their congregation. The funds raised also will go to establish new partnerships with local congregations and to provide community outreach services.
