Worldwide Candlelight Service
Held the second Sunday evening in December, this service includes special music, spiritual encouragement, empathetic words of other grieving parents and the opportunity to light a candle for and publicly remember each child. The service is followed by a reception where grieving parents can get acquainted and show pictures and other mementos of their child.
