Sometimes love is for a lifetime

Sometimes a moment is a lifetime

A member of each family is invited to light a candle in memory of their baby. All family members are invited to walk in the procession. The procession of lighted candles is the central act of our gathering. The candles are placed in the sanctuary and on the altar. May we go gently and peacefully from here remembering all SOFT children.
