October 15th is Pregnancy and Infant Loss Remembrance Day,
a day of remembrance for all babies who have died ‘too soon’,
from early pregnancy loss thru infant death.

We acknowledge this day because EVERY life,
even the tiniest and shortest lived deserves
to be acknowledged and remembered.
The parents of these children never forget;
we would like to take this one day of the year
for everyone else to remember them too.

In 2005, we co-hosted a service of remembrance
for our precious Little Ones.
Although we are unable to hold a service this year,
we encourage people to set this day apart as a time
to honour the memories of these little lives that
touched us so deeply.

For those who have personally experienced loss,
this may mean a time of reflection
- rereading sympathy cards or buying a single white rose,
perhaps a thoughtful walk in a park
or a donation to a charity in baby's honour.
For the friends and family of these parents', it may mean
sending a card, or just sympathetically acknowledging the loss.

We believe that the Bible teaches that God has a love
and concern for even these smallest persons.
The Psalms tell us, "For You created my inmost being;
You knit me together in my mother’s womb.
All the days ordained for me were written in Your book
before one of them came to be." Psalm 139:13 & 16.

This day also marks the introduction of a new initiative
in the Cambridge area: Claire's Bears.
