IRIS Support Groups are a great place to visit with other parents who are going through the same things as you. Everyone is welcome regardless of where you live, when your child died, the cause of death, or the gestational age/age. There is time to share your story if you would like, share your pictures and other keepsakes, and time to learn about how you are feeling. Evening Support Group Meetings are from 7 - 8:30 pm at the IRIS Office - 218 3rd Ave. NW Faribault, MN 55021. If you have questions please feel free to call: (507)334-4748 or email: support@irisRemembers.com

12/01/2024 - 31st Annual Holiday Service of Remembrance
This beautiful service has been held annually for 31 years at the Chapel of the Good Shepherd on Shattuck Campus. Father Henry Doyle has presided over 30 of those services. Father Doyle has retired and informed us that this will be his final Holiday Service. Lets make this a very special service.
During one of these services, Father pointed out that the Chapel was build in memory of a baby girl, Eunice K. Shumway, who died on April 19, 1859, at the age of 13 months and 18 days, making this the perfect location for the IRIS service.
Plan to join us! Please find additional information on the home page starting in November.
