Send to friend Father Sean Martin will be the main celebrant at the annual Mass, "In Memory of Our Children," on Sunday, Dec. 11.
The Mass will be celebrated at 2 p.m. at the Old Cathedral, 209 Walnut St. Downtown on the Riverfront.
The Mass is an annual tradition that started in the 1980s and provides families who have lost a child a way to include them in their Christmas observance. Bereaved parents have said the Mass helps them celebrate Christmas with the memory of their child before taking part in holiday activities.
