A wave of light around the world

A wave of light around the world

Each year all around the world on International Pregnancy and Infant Loss Day, candles are lit to honour and remember a baby who has died. The result is a wave of light around the world. 

At Mater Mothers we are very fortunate to celebrate the joy of new life but unfortunately, among the joy there is sadness for those families whose pregnancy has resulted in loss.   

On Tuesday 15 October at 7 pm, Mater will host our annual Wave of Light ceremony to compassionately remember, acknowledge and support those families who have experienced the loss of a pregnancy or baby in the last year. Each year all around the world at this time, candles are lit to honour and remember a baby who has died. The result is a wave of light around the world.

We welcome anybody who would like to attend the service please RSVP  by Thursday 10 October 2019 by:

If you are unable to attend but would like to be included in this ceremony through lighting of the remembrance candle, please email your Name and your baby’s name if you wish for a candle to be lit in their memory.

Our thoughts are with all the Mater Mums who have experienced a loss of a baby.
