October 15th

Today is Pregnancy & Infant Loss Remembrance Day. This is a day of remembrance for all pregnancies & infant death which include miscarriage, stillbirth, SIDS or the death of a newborn.

The Pregnancy & Infant Loss Awareness Movement began on October 25, 1988 when President Ronald Regan designated October as Pregnancy & Infant Loss Awareness Month. On September 28, 2006 the House of Representatives passed October 15th as National Pregnancy & Infant Loss Remembrance Day.

Please join us in remembering by lighting a candle tonight at 7:00pm to honor our children.
