PET CANDLE CEREMONY
On Monday evenings all across the country we light candles in memory of our recently lost pets. It is a very healing ritual with no adherence to any religion or creed, just a simple lighting of candles to bring us all together.

The Candle Ceremony is not done online. Each of us lights our candles in our own way and privately, but since we share a common love and since most of us do light them at the same time, we are joined in love and in spirit.

When a human loved one dies, a prescribed ritual provides a cushion between the loss and the return to "normal" life. When the loved one is a pet, society provides no means of closure. For many of us the Candle Ceremony has brought peace, acceptance and the hope of eternal reunion someday in that place "Just this side of Heaven we call Rainbow Bridge".

The Candle Ceremony began on the Prodigy Service in 1993 and is now found on all the major online services and many animal related email lists. 

So, this Monday night, please take a moment to join us in letting our friends at the Bridge know that they "may be gone from our sight, but never from our hearts".

Peace and God Bless your beloved Pets.
