Mission Hospice Society Celebrates 40 Years of Providing Compassionate Care

Submitted by Mission Hospice Society
The Mission Hospice Society was founded in 1985 as a non profit society by Lilian Dudfield to provide compassionate care and support to the dying and the bereaved. Hospice emphasizes “care not cure ” for the terminally ill and the provision of social, emotional and spiritual comfort for the patient, family and friends throughout the final stage of illness, at the time of death and during bereavement.

The programs and services of the Mission Hospice Society are free. We offer bereavement support services including one on one sessions with our Bereavement Coordinator. Mission Hospice also has a widows support group, children and teens support group and grief support. "Compassionate Friends" is also offered, which is a support group for bereaved parents.

The Mission Hospice Society is part of the Palliative Care Team at Mission Memorial Hospital which cares for patients diagnosed with life-limiting illnesses and, in partnership with Fraser Health, the Society provides programs, services and funds all patient care comfort needs in the Christine Morrison Hospice. Together, we strive to facilitate and create a wonderful and loving experience for all who pass through Hospice and your support allows us to continue this work.

The Mission Hospice Society depends on the financial donations and support of our community, we invite you to be a part of our 40th year providing compassionate care and bereavement services to our community. In addition to this milestone we will also be celebrating our 20th annual gala. For more information, to become a gala sponsor, or to get your tickets, please email [email protected] or call 604-826-2235.

Best Crystals for Love, Inner Peace and Attraction
Crystals and Stones can help you manifest or attract love in many different ways. Love isn’t easy to define or even recognize. But it’s something that you can certainly feel. Most crystals for love offer some form of emotional healing. You can’t expect love to find you if you’re making it impossible for loving energy to enter your heart.

Amethyst is a crystal for love, inner peace, and empowerment. Even if you’re not actively seeking love, the crystal has a knack for opening your heart and attracting it! Amethyst is a strong healer of the heart. It encourages you to look inward and embrace the person that you are.

Moonstone gives off nurturing feminine energy. It resonates deep within your soul and provides support. A stone of discovery. Those struggling with relationships and love can use it to look inward and identify negative patterns that lead to pain. It shines a light on those issues and gives you the strength to make changes.

Citrine is fantastic for those who are suffering from a broken heart. Citrine illuminates your soul and washes away darkness that lingers. Bask in the crystal’s healing energy to tackle old wounds and find solace! 

Rose Quartz is said to attract potential suitors by addressing negative thinking that keeps them away! It heals old wounds and builds feelings of compassion, trust, and tolerance. Rose Quartz offers a glimmer of hope in a sea of loneliness. It fills your soul with unconditional love and opens you up to the idea of sharing it.

Lapis Lazuli teaches you to use your words carefully. You can speak your truth, which will ultimately strengthen the bonds you have with everyone in your life.

Black Obsidian absorbs dark energy from your auric field, allowing you to see clearly. Once you take care of the dark energy brewing inside, you can truly open up and invite healing love in.

The Best Ways To Use Them
  • Wear as Jewellery close to your heart
  • Put them under your pillow or bedside table.
  • Stones for love are popular with meditation and prayer.
  • You can hold small, polished rocks in your hand during thoughtful meditation.

During that time, think about your intentions and let the nurturing energy wash over your body.
