The Light Up a Life event, organised by Southern Area Hospice Services, was for members of the local community to spend a time of reflection in the run-up to Christmas.
The Lord Mayor of Armagh City, Banbridge and Craigavon, Alderman Margaret Tinsley said she delighted to help host the annual ceremony.
The event included a reflection by hospice chaplain Rev Matthew Hagan, singing of Christmas carols by the pupils of St Francis Primary School, Lurgan and contributions by hospice volunteers.
