After the opening prayer Tuesday evening, Marty Ahrends, executive director of the Abraham Lincoln Healthcare Foundation, read aloud the poem "Light a Candle."

This year the honorary chairs for the Light Up a Life service were Dave and Diane Campbell, who did the honor of lighting the tree decorated with white lights and topped with a blue star. The couple spoke to the guests about the importance of the financial support that is gained through the Light Up a Life project. 

They also named the family members whom they were remembering and honoring and invited guests to do the same.

After a few minutes of remembrance, McCuan led the group in the singing of Christmas songs.
