Clare 250 Christmas Candle Event

OVER the festive season, the entrance to the Clare 250 Cancer Centre in Ballygriffey will be lit up by 150 votive candles, each one a kind prayer for a loved one who is ill or has sadly passed away.

The candles will be lit from 6pm to 9pm from December 25 to January 5. The name and home place of those who are to be remembered will be displayed on the plinth in front of the statue of Our Lady each night. One candle will cost €5 (with one name per candle). You may purchase as many as you wish. For further details call 065-6841600 or go to Clare250cancercentre.ie.
