All are welcome to attend Naming and Commendation, a prayer service developed by the Archdiocese of St. Louis to meet the needs of families whose child died before birth for any reason (including miscarriage, accident, abortion, or still birth). Parents and families of any religious background are invited to attend, whether the loss was recent or long ago.
Naming and Commendation will start at 1:00 p.m. at St. Francis Borgia Church on Sunday, December 3. The Rite, celebrated by Father Jeff Maassen, will offer parents and families an opportunity to name their child, bring peaceful closure to great loss, and unite with our merciful God.
Please RSVP by November 30 by text or phone to Jane Maune at 636-432-6781, or call for more information.
