SUMMARY:Saying Goodbye baby loss service
DESCRIPTION:Saying Goodbye\, part of the Mariposa Trust\, are coming to Belfast in June with a very special baby loss remembrance and support service\, part of a UK and Ireland chain of events.   \nThis year is the 10th anniversary of the Saying Goodbye services.   \nThe Mariposa Trust’s core objective is to support people who have lost babies at any stage of pregnancy\, at birth\, or in infancy. It was founded in 2012\, by Zoe and Andy Clark-Coates\, who saw a critical lack of support for people who\, like them\, had gone through baby loss.  \nWith more than 258\,000 babies being lost yearly in the UK alone\, the charity needed to be able to offer not only a comprehensive package of befriending and support but also national baby loss remembrance services (called Saying Goodbye Services)\, for people to join together and remember the children they had lost.  \nThis year will see 21 services across England\, Wales\, Scotland and Ireland. \nThe Belfast service takes place on June 11 at 3.30pm on St Anne’s Cathedral.  \nIt is for anyone who has either personally lost a baby at any stage of pregnancy\, at birth\, or in early years\, or who has been affected by family members’ or friends’ loss.  Whether the loss was recent or 80 years ago\, everyone is welcome to attend.  \nThe Mariposa Trust says it has extended the services and welcomes anyone who is grieving the fact that they haven’t had children due to circumstance\, infertility\, or for other reasons. Babies and children are also invited to come with their families\, as the Saying Goodbye service is a family event for all.  \nTo read more on the charity\, please see the Saying Goodbye website\, which you can find at: www.sayinggoodbye.org

SUMMARY:Service of Lament
DESCRIPTION:As June 21 is given increasing recognition across Northern Ireland as a Day of Reflection\, Corrymeela\, in partnership with Belfast Cathedral\, will bring people together to St Anne’s Cathedral for the third annual Service of Lament. \nExtending the invitation on behalf of the Dean\, Healing through Remembering\, the WAVE Trauma Centre and other partners\, the Rev Dr Alexander Wimberly\, Leader of the Corrymeela Community\, said:  “As the sun reaches its highest point\, we are given time to pause and acknowledge the grief that countless individuals have experienced through sectarian violence – and to commit ourselves to a more hope-filled future for everyone.” \nThe Service of Lament begins at 11.30am. \nDr Wimberly said that while this is ‘a Christian service for a society marked by sectarian violence\,’ the liturgy is designed as an ecumenical experience. \n“At St Anne’s\, leaders of both Catholic and Protestant churches stand alongside victims and survivors. They alternate reading the lead parts of the liturgy to demonstrate leadership on equal standing. Instead of one voice dominating the service with a sermon or sacramental act\, multiple voices are heard. This year those who are victims and survivors will be joined Bishop Alan Abernethy\, and Abbot Mark-Ephrem Nolan of the Rostrevor Benedictines \n“The service includes a generous amount of silence with the explicit recognition that well intended words often arrive as irrelevant noise\, that too often churches in Northern Ireland remained silent in the face of sectarian violence when they could have been more outspoken\, and that silence held together can be both difficult and beneficial.” \nDr Wimberly said this ‘very powerful’ service can bring a degree of healing to a painful and often unspoken part of someone’s life.   \n“At the service last year\, the Moderator of the Presbyterian Church in Ireland remarked on how rare it is for us in this society to come together to acknowledge our collective pain\,” he said. “The Archbishop of Armagh (RC) noted that we have separated ourselves from each other – even in our grief. \n“A shared service of lament provides an opportunity for us to be together as we find the courage to remember the past and seek hope for a better future.” \nA link to the livestream of the event will be available on the day at: https://www.youtube.com/@CorryCentre
