Hospital chaplain holds
memorial service to remember loved ones
THE chaplain of Southport and Ormskirk
Hospital NHS Trust, Rev. Martin Abrams, is leading a memorial service on 6
November 2016, for anyone wishing to remember a loved 1. The service will be
held at 10.45am on Sunday 6 November at Ainsdale Methodist Church, opposite
Ainsdale Village Green. Dr Karen Groves, Consultant in Palliative Medicine, will
also take part in the service. Martin says:- “There are many ways people
like to remember loved ones. For those who wish to do it in the context of a
Church service, and are not involved in other churches, there is a warm
invitation to come to Ainsdale Methodist Church. Anyone is welcome at the
service and we hope the time together will be gentle, supportive and encouraging
for all. There will be an opportunity to remember loved ones in different ways,
including lighting a candle of remembrance or placing a flower of remembrance.”
Dr Groves, added:- “Remembering those we have loved and lost is important
to us, and it can be important to continue to celebrate and remember their
lives. November is already a month of remembrance and it seems entirely
appropriate that we also remember those we have cared for here at the Trust.”
Refreshments will be available after the service. |
