Stroll Into Light

"tipping the balance between hope and despair"

A Stroll into Light is the answer to the call we have all been ignoring for the longest time. The mental health epidemic, especially in adolescents, only receives attention when a tragedy has occurred or a life is lost. A Stroll into Light is a recognition that each person is fighting their own battle each and every day. Whether that be anxiety, depression, or any mental health related issue, no one person should feel alone in their situation. As a community, we must support each other and advocate for peoples’ stories to be heard. At this candlelight event, each attendee will receive a candle to reflect and mourn as we walk side by side. A Stroll into Light will also have an optional time of prayer, and there will also be an opportunity to receive hope from individuals who themselves have risen from the darkness to walk in the light of life!  

Please walk with us on Sunday, November 12th at Mount Tabor High School Track at 6 pm to be a part of the Second Annual “Stroll into Light.”  Gathering will start at 5:00pm.  Please check-in by 5:50pm to get your candles.  Opening remarks at 6:05.  Walk starts 6:10-6:40pm. Event ends 7:00pm.   

Stroll Into Light T-shirts will be given out to the first 200 walkers that arrive Sunday night.
