We will be holding a special Mass to acknowledge, remember, and support those who have experienced the heartbreaking loss of a child through miscarriage, stillbirth, abortion, illness, injury, or natural death.
These losses may be recent or may go back many years; each one is held with tenderness, compassion, and care. The love for a child never fades, and every life, no matter how brief, is precious and worthy of remembrance.
This Mass of Consolation offers a sacred space for prayer, reflection, and healing. As a community of faith, we gather to honour the lives of babies and children who left this world too soon, to grieve with those who grieve, and to entrust these little ones to God's loving care.
Family members, friends, and all who wish to stand in solidarity with those who mourn are warmly invited to attend. Together, we pause to remember, to pray, and to find comfort in God's mercy, hope, and healing grace.
"Those we have held in our arms for a little while, we hold in our hearts forever."
