October 15th- Pregnancy and Infant Loss Ceremony

On Saturday, October 15, 2022, we will be holding our annual Pregnancy and Infant Loss Memorial Service at 7pm.

A time when all grieving parents can come together and be surrounded by love and support from their friends and families, a time when the community can learn to better understand their pain and how to reach out to those grieving. 

This will be a time to reflect on the loss yet embrace the love. While our babies’ lives were so brief, they were also very meaningful. Yet, there was not time to talk about them. Our society seems to forget or perhaps, simply doesn’t know how to reach out.

Join us in remembering our babies at a candlelight ceremony on October 15th @ 7pm at the Angel of Hope of Central Florida at Sunshine Park, Altamonte Springs, FL

Parking is available at 612 Newport Avenue, Altamonte Springs

If you would like your baby’s or babies name(s) read and honored during the ceremony please complete this form: https://forms.gle/QuxQr9GVb3kzYfaVA

Please bring chairs since there is limited seating at the park.
This event is family-friendly.
Arrive early to create a luminary in honor of your baby.

Donations will be gratefully accepted at the ceremony.

HOPE

Hope Image

Through our current time of struggle, we have become more aware of many things.  In this time of physical distancing, we’ve become aware of our need for emotional connection.  In this time of uncertainty, we’ve become aware of what we’re sure of, that we’re not alone in this struggle.

As we begin to emerge from this time of struggle, we become aware of the importance of hope in how we move forward.

We, at the Angel of Hope of Central Florida, invite you to post your thoughts about hope.  Feel free to share a thought, a song lyric, a movie or book quote, a biblical verse, or any insight about how hope is important to you, especially at this time.  

And we hope you’ll share this site with others as a place to share with everyone the value of hope.
