Memorial Day DC 2008


MANCHESTER, NH — December 21st, the first day of winter, is the longest night of the year.  It is on this night that we gather to remember those with no home and, specifically, those who were homeless and passed away in the last year.

Please join CMC’s Health Care for the Homeless, other advocates and healthcare workers, members of the faith community and neighbors to honor the lives of those in New Hampshire who have died in 2017.  The brief but poignant ceremony will include songs led by St. Catherine’s choir and a reading of the names.

Participants are encouraged to dress appropriately and bring a battery-operated candle (a limited number will be provided).  The program should last 20-30 minutes.

When:  Thursday, December 21st, 2017 at 6 PM

Where:  Veteran’s Memorial Park
Elm Street, Manchester, NH
