You are warmly invited to a quiet, heartfelt evening for individuals and families in our Sunshine Coast community who have experienced pregnancy, infant or child loss.
Held in recognition of International Pregnancy and Infant Loss Remembrance Day, this gathering offers a gentle space to pause, reflect and honour our little ones who remain forever loved.
Every child, no matter how brief their time with us, leaves an enduring imprint - their lives cherished, their stories held, their light continues.
Hosted by Suncoast Church, this evening offers a gentle space for remembrance, reflection and prayer, shaped by the hope and comfort of Christian faith and welcoming everyone regardless of faith or background.
What to expect:
Throughout the space, you will find several stations. Move through them in your own time - pause where you feel drawn, reflect at your own pace, and stay as long as you need. There is no set order, no expectations, no pressure - come and go as feels comfortable.
Tea and coffee will be available throughout the evening, and members of the Suncoast Team will be present if you would like someone to listen, sit or pray with you.
Child‑minding is also available, so you can take the time and space you need.
Who is this night for?
This night is for everyone.
Mums, Dads, Grandparents, Siblings and Friends. All are warmly invited to join us in remembrance.
You do not have to walk this journey alone.

Shared Stories
One station at the event will be “Shared Stories”
In this space we will showcase a video that weaves together reflections from parents, siblings, grandparents, aunts and uncles across our community who have experienced pregnancy, infant or child loss.
Their stories offer tender insight, shared understanding and a sense of companionship on a journey no-one chooses, but many walk.
If you would like to share your story, a reflection or a memory, you can do so here.
There is no right or wrong way to share and every story is received with gratitude and handled with confidentiality, care and respect.
“Through heartache and healing, God has taught me some of the most profound, difficult truths I have known. I have learned that love and loss are intertwined - that the privilege of loving someone so deeply also carries the price of grieving them deeply.”
- Monique Galler, Suncoast Community Member and Mother of Aiden (5 years old) and angels, Archer (2023) and Elena (2025)
