Festival 2022

Comforting Karaoke - remembering through song

Organised by Sacred Heart Sanctuary volunteers

The event will take place 6 November 2022 at Dysart Community Hall.

Our event was born bringing together two important things: grief and music.

Music is so healing, even the music that makes us cry.

We invite you to come along and remember your loved one through song.

Bring along their photos and place it beside a candle burner and take your time to think of a song.

Once we are all in and a have had a wee chat, we are going to have a karaoke.

We will sing some of the songs.

You can participate or listen the choice is yours.

Tha main thing is we will laugh we may cry but we will be remembering them.

There will be a side for singing and a side for chatting.

We will bring all our skills to the ceremony and talk of powerful ways to help cope with grief. And remember we too shall die someday.

Kid-friendly event because kids grieve too and to us, it's so important their grief and pain can be seen. Also, we are providing coping mechanism that children can use to say I am sore today in different ways.

You will receive a little take home gift as a reminder.
