A special thank you to Brittany for her heart, leadership, and vision in creating this year’s tree, themed “Recovery Is Possible.” With more than five overdose-related deaths occurring every day in British Columbia, this message is both urgent and necessary. There is hope—and it is our prayer that this tree shines a light on that hope for all who see it.
Come visit the tree from November 28, 2025 to January 4, 2026 from 4pm daily at Tsawwassen Springs Golf Course 5133 Springs Blvd, Tsawwassen, BC.
The Serenity Prayer
God, grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change the courage to change the things I can and the wisdom to know the difference.
Living one day at a time, enjoying one moment at a time. Accepting hardships as the pathway to peace. Taking, as he did, the sinful world as it is, not as I would have it. Trusting that he will make all things right if I surrender to His will; that I may be reasonably happy in this life, and supremely happy with Him forever.
—Reinhold Niebuhr, 1892-1971
