9/11 Memorial Ceremony to Be Held at Saint Francis

Saint Francis Medical Center and the Mission Integration Committee will host a time of remembrance and prayer for peace in the Healing Garden at Saint Francis Medical Center Friday, September 11, at 9 am, to remember those lost on September 11, 2001, and honor those who survived.

This is a day of national significance – impacting people in New York, Washington, D.C., and Pennsylvania – but 9/11 also impacted the local community, touching lives in Southeast Missouri.

This year's event will focus on the necessity of peace in our lives – at home and in the community.

The brief program will include prayers for peace and the presentation of the American flag.

Prominent local leaders and area clergy will lead the ceremony.

For questions, please contact the Saint Francis Pastoral Care office at 573-331-5146.
