(CLEVELAND, OH) – The Diocese of Cleveland will have a special liturgy (Silent Sorrow Mass) on Sunday, Oct. 7 at 5:30 p.m. at the Cathedral of St. John the Evangelist (East 9th Street and Superior Avenue) to provide comfort and compassion for those who grieve from miscarriage, infertility or neonatal death.
In reflecting on the problematic events at fertility clinics earlier this year, the diocese is offering this special Mass for those who suffer the silent sorrow. Organized by the diocesan Office for Worship, the Silent Sorrow Mass provides assistance to parents in their grief and aids to console them with the blessing of God. The Most Reverend Nelson J. Perez, bishop of the Diocese of Cleveland, will be the main celebrant.
All are welcome to attend this Mass.
