October Evening of Remembrance

I didn't know how much I needed this.
It was the first time I felt I was able to say good-bye.
We hear the words "you are not alone", but tonight I actually felt like it. Surrounded by my own community of people.

These are just some of the words we have heard from people who have attended our Evenings of Remembrance. Join us on Tuesday, October 3rd, as we join together once again as a community of parents, family members, and friends - all touched by the heartache of pregnancy or newborn loss.
Here are the details:
  • Tuesday, October 3rd at 6:00 pm
  • Wings of Hope memorial site in Calvary Cemetery (behind the chapel and main office building)
  • An ecumenical service - Pastor Dave from New Creation will be our faith leader
  • Music and poem readings
  • An opportunity to place flowers at the memorial site in memory of your child (we provide cut flowers but you may also bring your own)
  • An opportunity to light a candle at the end of the service, in recognition of the National Pregnancy and Infant Loss Awareness Month (October) - bring your own candle or use one of ours
  • Limited seating at the site (you may also stand or bring your own lawn chair)
  • Light refreshments and fellowship following the service
  • In the event of rain, we will move inside to the chapel.
Please let us know if you have any questions about the service. All are welcome and encouraged to attend this Evening of Remembrance and living reminder of hope.
