Healing Gardens Fund

In four short months, his vision became a reality. During his speech, Chris reminded us of the tough few years that we have endured during the COVID-19 pandemic, but also reminded us that Northern Regional Hospital continued to shine through those difficult times. For eighteen months, the hospital was full. Our staff were dedicated to caring for many critical patients. Record numbers of patients died during that time. The Healing and Prayer Garden is viewed as an important tribute for the entire NRH team who allowed Northern Regional Hospital to shine brightly during a very challenging period. No doubt, many people will visit the Healing and Prayer Garden for many different needs. Some will be hurting, some will be sick, some will be facing difficult diagnoses, some will be facing death of a loved one, but they will all be seeking a place of refuge where they can take a moment to stop and breathe during the difficult times.

Linda’s Healing and Prayer Garden will offer that place of refuge for patients, families, visitors and staff to reflect, refuel, and reenergize to keep pressing on during hard times. It will serve our organization and our community well for many years to come. What a blessing it is for Northern Regional Hospital to be able to provide something so meaningful and so special to our community!

We are very proud to report that Linda’s Healing and Prayer Garden was 100% funded by private contributions matched by funds from our Foundation. As we began to invite others to support our vision through the fundraising process, we were overwhelmed by the generosity and giving spirit of our own employees and our community partners. We are so thankful for every person that chose to invest in our idea for this project.
