Wave of Light

Today is International Pregnancy and Infant Loss Day. Across the globe, candles are lit from 7-8 p.m. in each time zone, creating a wave of light for 24 hours in memory of precious little ones gone too soon.  

My heart goes out to each one I know. Those in my blood family, married family, and trisomy family. Those I've met briefly, and those I've known for years.

I know their babies are missed, now and for the rest of their lives. My prayers are with you, especially tonight.

 

Wouldn’t it be tragic if we didn’t feel great sorrow

when we lose a child?

How grateful I am to my Father in Heaven that

He allows us to love deeply and love eternally.

How grateful I am for eternal families.

Elder Shayne M. Bowen
