All Soul's Day
How fitting that today being All Souls Day, that we place our sign for Morgan’s Place Cemetery and Saint Philomena’s Chapel. Many thanks to the talented Emily Weigandt and Upper Valley Career Center who designed our logo. Thank you to my mother Jae Huelskamp and my aunt Jeanie Girod for donating the sign to mark the spot where we will bury our two babies and begin our journey of ministering to families who, like us, have experienced the loss of a baby. For those of you whom we haven’t had the opportunity to share our mission, Nathan and I have donated a portion of our land, which is nestled inside our family farm. Here we plan to hold funeral services on site in the Chapel and bury miscarried, stillborn and aborted babies for free for families and also provide them with resources to help guide them through the grieving process. Please pray that we continue to discern God’s will for this cemetery, as it is truly our labor of love to give all babies a beautiful resting place.
Ty this is very nice of your family. I often wondered what happens when a baby passes. I heard if before the 20 wk mark parents can not take them. Is this true? We are i. our 70s now but i miscarried 4 times at 15 weeks or lsss..they never ask me if I wanted to bury my babies.i wish there was a place like this back then .Our great grandson Wesley is to be buried there tues.Sept. 15 if date is wrong I am sorry. Ty again to all of you.Darlene and Larry Copli
