The Little Angels Shrine
Resurrection Cemetery
208 South Main Street, Newtown, Connecticut
The Little Angels Shrine, a sacred space, will be available to bury the remains of a miscarriage, stillborn, or infant in consecrated ground. With or without remains, we will provide a plaque on the memorial walls for every ‘angel’.
Shrine Opening & Blessing
Bishop Caggiano will offer a blessing at the Shrine on Saturday at 11:00 am, September 6, 2025.
Monthly Service Honoring Our Children
We will gather on one Saturday each month to host a service and receive your remains, which will be secured and interred the following week by our field staff. There will be no charge for the service, burial, plaques/inscriptions, but we gratefully accept your donation to help support this sacred and healing space.
The first service will be on Saturday, September 13, at 11:00 am. In the future, services will be held on one Saturday each month. The website will provide dates in advance.
More Information
If you have remains for burial or want a plaque to honor your child, you must register in advance.
For more information on state/local laws, medical considerations, and our burial procedures and/or to make a reservation to attend a Saturday service, please visit our Little Angels webpage and complete the form.
