Peter Pan was ‘the boy who never grew up’ ‘ This beautiful bronze statue is an appropriate and pleasant place for us to have our candle lighting. We in New Zealand are proud to be the first country in the world to start this ring of light for our children gone too soon. Brief service with poems readings and the reading of our children’s names. The lovely “Precious Child” song will play as we light our candles.

Photos or remembrances of your child : candles if you want but candles will also be supplied.

Light refreshments supplied. Attendees can move on to the City Carols by Candlelight Service held also at the Lake at 7pm but a short distance away.
Members will stay with the candles til 8pm.

Neste ano pandémico, não esquecemos a Iniciativa Anual “Acenda uma Vela” que une famílias e amigos à volta desta causa. A iniciativa irá decorrer, de forma online:

1. Junte-se a nós, acendendo uma vela no dia 13 de Dezembro, para formarmos uma Onda de Luz: amamos esta ideia!
2. Tire uma fotografia à vela que acendeu.
3. Escreva um pequeno texto, uma frase, uma mensagem sobre o seu ente querido que partiu demasiado cedo e envie através deste formulário:
https://www.clarissequeiros.pt/acenda-uma-vela/

Torna-se, cada vez mais necessário, aprender a viver com e apesar de. É preciso aprender a viver com a dor, com a falta, com a saudade e apesar do adeus. E é preciso, sobretudo, reconstruir-se!

Participe connosco!
Junte-se a nós!
*Para que as suas luzes, jamais deixem de brilhar*

We will share photos of our children, music, poems and prayers. We will remember our dear children with love.
