A reminder that The Compassionate Friends, an online organization dedicated to supporting families after the death of a child, will hold its 28th annual Worldwide Candle Lighting on Saturday, December 8th at 7:00 p.m. local time, to honor all children that have died.
You can find out more about this wonderful resource and candle lighting here: https://www.compassionatefriends.org/event/28th-annual-worldwide-candle-lighting/
I take part yearly, too. In addition to lighting a candle for my son, Eric, who passed away in 2003, I will also be lighting a candle for all those children tragically lost in war in 2024.
Please join us, and know that for one evening, you are not alone in your grief.
It is a simple, yet powerfully brilliant evening of healing.
