Celebration of Lights
An annual community highlight since the mid-1990s, the Celebration of Lights provides an evening for residents and community members to honor and remember those who have gone before us. The evening includes a worship service held in Detwiler Auditorium as well as an opportunity to walk through our campus beautifully dotted with luminaries. Through community sponsorships and individuals appeals, this events raises support for our Good Samaritan Annual Fund. The Good Samaritan Annual Fund and Compassion Endowment provide residents who have outlived their resources with exceptional benevolent care, allowing them to live at VMRC for the remainder of their days.

“We have enthusiastically supported the Good Samaritan Fund for many years. This compassion funding helped care for Connie’s mother who lived at VMRC for several years. It is our hope that others will join us in supporting the Good Samaritan Fund to help others in need now and in years to come.”
– Connie and Hugh Westfall, current VMRC residents
