This special event is open to all ages and all parents, siblings, family members and friends. Please bring your own lawn chairs or a blanket to sit comfortably on the lawn or pavilion.

This event is free to attend but we ask that you register below so we can plan accordingly!

Please bring your own candle that is enclosed in glass to place on the stage as we speak our children’s names and allow their light to shine. You can bring one candle per family or multiple candles. You are welcome to decorate your candles before arriving. Each family is also welcome to bring a token of remembrance to sit next to the candle. This can be a photo, a stuffed animal, a blanket, etc.

Please begin arriving at 6:30 p.m. to set up your lawn chairs/blanket and visit with our partner organizations. We will begin the ceremony at approximately 6:45 p.m. and begin lighting candles at 7:00 p.m. The ceremony will include an introduction of the event, readings, music, and stories from parents who have experienced the death of their baby from miscarriage, stillbirth, or infant loss.

About the International Wave of Light

The International Wave of Light is an annual event that takes place on Pregnancy and Infant Loss Awareness Day, October 15. Candles are lit around the world in all time zones at 7:00pm and they remain lit for exactly 1 hour. As the candles are extinguished at 8:00pm the next time zone is lighting their candles and the wave of light continues as a symbol of the light and love of our children filling the world. Parents, family and friends are encouraged to light candles in memory of their children. One of the most meaningful gifts that a parent can receive is knowing that their child is being remembered. This simple gesture touches their heart and assures them that they are not alone.
