My heart is filled...

...with prayers of love and strength, hope and healing today for every woman and man that has suffered the loss and pain of a miscarriage.

October 15th marks Pregnancy Loss Awareness Day. Statistics show that 1 in every 4 women will suffer a miscarriage in their lifetime. Please take a moment today to say a prayer or send some loving thoughts to all the women and men that have suffered this loss, never being able to hold their child in their arms.

No matter where you live in the world, at 7pm your time can you light a candle and keep it burning for one hour in memory of all the lost babies and in support of their families.

If everyone in every time zone does this there should be a continuous wave of light for a full 24 hours.
