Providence Hospital celebrated its 41st Christmas tree lighting recently in the main lobby of the hospital. The event, a project of the Providence Auxiliary, raises funds for the needs of the hospital and those it serves.

Donors honor or remember those who have been special in their lives by purchasing a light for the tree. Scrolls with the names of those who have donated or have been memorialized are displayed in the lobby throughout the Christmas season.
The Faith Academy choir sang during the event, which is organized by Karen Dixon, volunteer and gift shop manager, and Susan Bacon, president of the Providence Auxiliary.
Donors and those honored were invited to the ceremony and a reception immediately following hosted by the auxiliary in the DePaul Center.
