Community Invited to a Festive Evening of Lights, Performances, and Holiday Cheer on December 4
Maria Parham Health is proud to announce a special community celebration in honor of its 100th anniversary of providing healthcare to Henderson, Vance County, and surrounding areas. On December 4, the hospital will host an evening of family-friendly festivities as it illuminates its campus for the first time, marking a century of hope, healing, and service.
The event will take place from 5:00 p.m. to 6:30 p.m. in front of the hospital and will feature:
- The lighting of Maria Parham Health’s first outdoor Christmas tree
- 100 glowing luminaries honoring loved ones from across the region
- Performances by talented young local artists
- Inspiring messages from area clergy
- Hot cocoa and cookies for all attendees
- A visit from Santa Claus, with parents invited to bring cameras for photos
Community members, families, and former patients are warmly encouraged to attend and create a new holiday tradition together on the campus of Maria Parham Health. The celebration also invites former patients to reflect on and celebrate their own journeys of healing.
“As we mark 100 years of caring for this community, we wanted to create a celebration that reflects the warmth, resilience, and togetherness that define Henderson and Vance County,” said Bert Beard, CEO of Maria Parham Health. “This event is our way of saying thank you to every patient, family, staff member, and neighbor who has been part of our story. We hope everyone will join us as we light up our campus and celebrate a century of hope and healing.”
Community members wishing to honor a loved one with a luminary may reserve one free of charge by emailing donna.young@lpnt.net.
Maria Parham Health will also be accepting canned food donations for ACTS (Area Christians Together in Service) during the event.
