Last week, a local organization shined a light or rather many lights to honor, encourage and remember anyone who has battled cancer.
During the event, Heritage Square was lined with luminaries, which are bags with lights inside to represent the fight against cancer. Live entertainment included singer Major Smith from Austin, The First Baptist Church (Robinson Street) choir and music by John Youngblood.
The luminaria service ended with a walk around Heritage Square led by survivors as a remembrance of those who lost their cancer battle.
The event was hosted by the New Century Club, whose mission is to raise funds for the American Cancer Society.
While this was not an event to revamp Relay For Life, the club hopes this year was the start of a new tradition in Taylor.
