Spread the love

It seems appropriate in this week where a ban on some abortions has been upheld that we remember all of the children who have died unborn, either through abortion, miscarriage or stillbirth.

The Shrine of the Holy Innocents is dedicated to children who have died unborn” From their website:
.

Often children who have died before birth have no grave or headstone, and sometimes not even a name. At The Church of The Holy Innocents, we invite you to name your child(ren) and to have the opportunity to have your baby’s name inscribed in our “BOOK OF LIFE”.

Here, a candle is always lit in their memory. All day long people stop to pray. On the first Monday of every month, our 12:15pm Mass is celebrated in honor of these children and for the comfort of their families.

We pray that you will find peace in knowing that your child(ren) will be remembered at the Shrine and honored by all who pray here.

They are offering a beautiful rosary for $25 to support their good work. Many moms, Catholic and others, have the names of their children in the book of life at the shrine. My child’s name is also there.
