Tonight at 7 p.m., in all time zones across the world, you can light a candle to remember the babies lost due to miscarriage, ectopic and molar pregnancy, stillbirth or infant death. Because of the time zone differences, the lighting of these candles creates a “wave of light” across the world. It’s a beautiful, moving and touching tribute to the families who have suffered. 💜
