Richmond Animal League's Luminary Ceremony

kat simons

At the end of Operation Silent Night, and once every pet is in a home for the holidays, we will light up the night and experience the beautiful silence of an empty shelter during our Annual Luminary Ceremony. Let's celebrate the animals who have found a new loving home just in time for the holidays, while remembering the pets and people who are held near and dear to our hearts.
The 2021 Luminary Ceremony will be held the evening of December 22nd. This event is free and open to the public. Beginning at 5:30pm, we invite guests to start gathering outside RAL's Adoption Center for cookies and hot cocoa. The ceremony will begin at 6pm and will feature Elizabeth Felicetti from St. David's Episcopal Church as she leads the Blessing of the Animals. For those who can't attend, we will also stream the Luminary Ceremony live on RAL's Facebook page.
After the ceremony, we will walk through the empty shelter filled with luminaries honoring loved ones for a spectacular glowing tribute.
