Lighting Our Community
Tuesday, December 3rd from 5:00 PM – 5:30 PM
- Join us for the 1st Annual Lighting Our Community, hosted by Hospice of Southern Illinois. This service is open to everyone—whether you’re part of our hospice family or a member of the broader community—to honor the lives that forever shine in our hearts. Together, we will hold a candlelight vigil, listen to music that brings comfort, and take a moment of reflection to remember those we’ve loved and lost. A highlight of the evening will be the lighting of a beautiful, 30-foot pine tree, standing proudly between our two offices on S. Illinois Street in Belleville, which will remain lit throughout the holiday season. If you have any questions, feel free to reach out to Lisa Phillipson at lphillipson@hospice.org.
