Of Womb and Tomb Prayer Service

We’re looking forward to praying with you at Old St. Mary’s Church on November 9th for our Prayer in Time of Infertility, Miscarriage, and Stillbirth. As a part of the service, we’d like to proclaim names and light candles in memory of our little ones.

So that we might prepare, please feel free to send a private email with the names that we should speak aloud to [email protected]. Some children were not named. That’s okay, too. There will be an opportunity to light a candle for the babies that remain in our hearts and on our minds, those without names, those whom we call “Baby Smith,” or “Baby Girl Ramirez.”

This is an opportunity to remember as you best see fit. Please don’t hesitate to reach out with any questions or concerns. Thank you for your willingness to teach me, to support one another, to be vulnerable, and to lean on each other through the journey of grief.
