For our Service men and women away from home this Christmas
As Christmas approaches Support Our Soldiers invite you
to join with them once again and to light
‘A Christmas Candle of Hope'.
2007 has been another difficult year for the British Forces serving in Iraq and Afghanistan, and for their families and friends at home
At 2.00pm on Christmas Day we ask you to light a candle and to take just one minute to pause and think...
...of all our servicemen & women away from home, wherever in the world they may be and to hope for their speedy and safe return.
...of their families, apart at this special time, and to hope they find strength in knowing that they will soon be re-united.
... and to remember those who have lost loved ones and to hope
they may find comfort
Please forward this to as many of your friends as possible. If news spreads far enough, and we hope it does, then candles will be lit across the world throughout the day and our lads and lassies will know how much they are cared about.
Please join with us and encourage
the nation, at least for a moment, to unite in
A Christmas Candle
of Hope
