Today is World Mental Health Day.

Mental health is part of our everyday lives, and no one should have to navigate life’s hardest moments alone.

Grief can affect us emotionally, physically, and mentally. Whether you’re grieving a loved one, supporting someone who is, or facing challenges of your own, your feelings matter, and it’s okay to ask for help.

At Cornerstone of Hope, we believe in the power of connection, compassionate support, and knowing you don’t have to walk through difficult days alone.

Today, and every day, remember to check in on yourself and the people you care about. Sometimes, a simple “How are you really doing?” can mean more than you know.

Pope Leo XIV has dedicated his prayer intention for October 2026 to mental health ministry, inviting the Church to become a place of welcome and hope for those who suffer.

In the accompanying “Pray with the Pope” video, the Holy Father holds an image of St. Dymphna, patroness of those with mental illness, and addresses God as the One who knows “the silent wounds that sometimes no one sees.” He prays: “Today we bring before you our brothers and sisters who struggle with challenges to their mental health, who suffer in solitude with anxiety, depression, or any other mental illness.”

Pope Leo asks forgiveness for the times Christians have looked away or contributed to stigma. He asks that the Church become “a safe space where everyone has a place—a community that accompanies and never excludes, that listens without judging and draws near without fear.”

He also remembers caregivers, family members, and professionals, asking God to strengthen them. The prayer concludes: “Send your Spirit upon us, that we may learn to welcome and integrate care for mental health into the life and ministry of our communities and of the whole Church, and thus become a living sign of your mercy, which never abandons and always restores.”

With more than a billion people worldwide living with mental disorders, the Pope’s intention calls the entire Church to greater compassion and practical care.

October is Pregnancy and Infant Loss Awareness Month.

For families who have experienced the loss of a pregnancy or infant, grief can be difficult to put into words. A loss may happen before others even knew you were expecting, but that doesn’t make the love, the memories, or the grief any less real.

This month, we remember the babies who are deeply loved and dearly missed, and we hold space for the parents, siblings, grandparents, and families carrying their loss.

Join us for our Pregnancy & Infant Loss Awareness Day Wave of Light Ceremony as we come together to remember, honor, and light a candle in memory of the little ones who will always be part of our families.

Whether your loss was recent or many years ago, you are welcome. We invite you to join us in remembrance and in community with others who understand.

This past weekend, Cornerstone of Hope gathered with families and community members at Metzger Park in Westerville for our annual Butterfly Release Ceremony.

Families released butterflies in memory of loved ones, surrounded by the beauty of the park’s pollinator garden and the support of our community.

We’re grateful to the City Government of Westerville, Ohio for providing such a beautiful setting, the Olentangy Schools Environmental Gardening Club and their chaperones for volunteering, All A Flutter Butterflies for the beautiful butterflies, and Nothing Bundt Cakes for their generous support.

Most importantly, thank you to the families who joined us and entrusted us with this meaningful moment of remembrance.

Grief can bring big, complicated emotions—especially for children. Join Cornerstone of Hope for an evening of connection, creativity, and support as we explore some of the difficult feelings that can come with grief and loss.

Families will enjoy dinner together before children and youth take part in age-appropriate grief education and a pumpkin-painting activity. Participants will create pumpkins representing some of the “scary” or difficult emotions they may experience while grieving—and take their creations home to display as meaningful Halloween decorations.
