"The dedication ceremony for the Angel of Hope statue in Troy, MO, was recently held. The statue, an exact replica of the Christmas Box Angel statue located in Salt Lake City, Utah, is a symbol of hope for all parents who have experienced the death of a child.. The statue is from Richard Paul Evans’ best selling novel, “The Christmas Box.” To honor the children’s memories, memorial bricks are being placed around the base of the statue. The next brick dedication will be held on November 15 at 1 p.m. Order forms for bricks are due by October 31. The nationwide candlelight vigil will be held on December 6 at 7 p.m. Everyone attending should bring a candle and a white flower to place at the base of the Angel" ~ Troy Angel of Hope
