TCF's Worldwide Candle
Lighting Ceremony will be December 11, 2011. The Compassionate
Friends Worldwide Candle Lighting unites family and friends around the globe to
honor and remember children who have died at any age from any cause.
The 2011 Banner was carried in the National Walk to Remember in
Minneapolis Minnesota on the closing day of the National Conference. It will be
displayed at local meetings and events throughout the year. We started adding
names at the Regional Conference. Come to our regular meetings to hand write
your child's name on the banner.
The mission of
The Compassionate Friends is to assist families toward the positive resolution
of grief following the death of a child of any age and to provide information to
help others be supportive.
The Compassionate Friends is a national nonprofit,
self-help support organization that offers friendship,understanding, and hope
to bereaved parents, grandparents and siblings. There is no religious
affiliation and there are no membership dues or fees.The secret of TCF's success is simple: As seasoned
grievers reach out to the newly bereaved, energy that has been directed inward
begins to flow outward and both are helped to heal. The vision of The
Compassionate Friends is that everyone who needs us will find us and everyone
who find us will be helped.
