A votive candle stand is now available in Our Lady Memorial Chapel next to the Memorial Book of Remembrance. It is available to those who visit our chapel and who would like to light a candle in memory of their deceased child.
Don’t cry for me, I’m not gone.
My soul is at rest, my heart lives on.
Light a candle for me to see And hold on to my memory,
But save your tears for I’m still here,
By your side through the years.

Lord I cannot stay long in this Church, but in lighting this candle I leave a symbol of myself which I want to give to you in love and praise. Help me, Lord, to prolong this prayer for my child during the activities of this day. Amen.
