Events - Nov 5 17

CHANS Hospice Care program will be holding an interfaith memorial event for anyone who has lost a loved one in the past year. A Time for Remembering will be held on Sunday, November 5, at 2:00 p.m. at the United Methodist Church, 320 Church Rd. Brunswick. The event honors people who received end-of-life care from CHANS Home Health Care, as well as others in the community who have died.

The special service celebrates life and love through music, poetry, sacred text, and a reading of the names of those who have died. Families are invited to bring a framed photograph of their loved one to display in a place of honor for the duration of the celebration. Refreshments will be served after the service.

People who would like to have the name of a loved one read at the service should call Andy Sokoloff, Coordinator of Bereavement Services at CHANS Hospice Care at (207) 721-1357, by 4:00 p.m. on Wednesday, November 2nd.

Handel’s Messiah has been beloved by audiences since its 1743 sold-out debut. Anchored by the thunderous “Hallelujah Chorus,” it is a pillar of Western music—a masterpiece that must be experienced live.
