On October 15th, Pregnancy and Infant Loss Awareness Day, we invite you to join us for a FREE in person candle lighting, as we participate in the Wave of Light. This event is hosted by A Touch of Teddy, a nonprofit that provides support to pregnancy/infant loss families by sending free teddy bear ornaments during the month of October. This is a small, simple event, which will begin at 6:15 PM.&nbsp;Participants will be welcome to light refreshments, bracelet making, and this year we are doing lantern bags which can be decorated! Around 6:55 we will head over to the pier where we can place our lantern bags, light candles and do a name reading of the babies who we are remembering. After the reading is complete, all are welcome to take their lantern bags upon their departure to keep with them. The Wave of Light is a global event, where families light a candle at 7:00 PM, in their time zone, as a symbol of remembrance. Because it&rsquo;s done at the same local time across all time zones, the candlelight moves around the globe in a continuous &ldquo;wave&rdquo; &mdash; so for a full 24 hours, there is always a light burning somewhere in memory of these children.The purpose is:<ul data-end="843" data-start="608" fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: inherit;"><li data-end="672" data-start="608" fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: inherit;">To honor the short but meaningful lives of these babies.</li><li data-end="752" data-start="673" fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: inherit;">To support grieving parents and families by showing they are not alone.</li><li data-end="843" data-start="753" fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: inherit;">To raise awareness about pregnancy and infant loss, which is often a silent grief</li></ul> We hope you will join us and connect with other families who are also missing their sweet babies, and allow us to remember your babies with you.
