The Church of the Holy Innocents - Shrine of the Unborn


Old_T.gif (1379 bytes)he Shrine is dedicated in Memory of the Children Who Have Died Unborn.

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.



The shrine also offers Certificates of Life.

That is so beautiful.

The next time I'm in that area I'll have to set aside some time so I can pray at the shrine for Michael and your family.

Prayers for your baby Michael. I filled out one for the baby we lost way back in August 1998. What is just too much of a coincidence is that we also were going to name our baby Michael only with a middle name of David.

Love you sweetie,
Marla

Great name for your dear one in Heaven!

Doesn't Vladimir mean "bringer of peace?"

Hugs to you - remembering you in my rosary!
