Families find comfort in Wave of Light ceremony
Back in His Arms Again Ministry hosted its annual Wave of Light ceremony in mid-October at Resurrection Cemetery. The event took place at the Garden of the Holy Innocents, a burial section for infants and babies lost to miscarriage that serves as a resting place for nearly 4,000 children.
The ceremony coincided with Infant Loss Awareness Day on Oct. 15. During the remembrance program, hospital chaplain Father Jacob Stinnett offered opening and closing prayers, while Kambra Conley, executive director of Back in His Arms Again, offered a reflection for families.
The Garden of the Holy Innocents is available to any parent free of charge.
