At the Death of A Child

Christ demonstrated a particular and protective love for children, commanding his disciples to make way for children to approach him and declaring God our Father is keenly aware and watchful over children. (Matthew 18:10-14) This provides us with wondrous assurance of God’s love! And yet we are still left with our questions, our anger, and our grief when a child dies. Our staff and members desire is to be a sign of God’s loving presence with any facing those questions and that grief. We do not have all the answers, but we are here and we have love to give.

Please contact the pastor/priest or designate someone to do so on your behalf.

We will meet with you and support you in any way we can, including helping you plan a fitting burial or memorial service. There is no financial cost to you; this is a ministry of the Church. And let us be in prayer with you.
