Ecumenical Service: Together We Remember and Find New Strength

Together We Remember, Mourn, and Move Forward

When a loved one dies by suicide, pain, questions, and a deep longing for support remain. This ecumenical service in Heilbronn creates a safe space for relatives and friends who live with such a loss. The focus is on remembering the deceased and empowering those who continue their life journey after the suicide of a loved one.

A Service for Mourning and Hope

In the liturgical celebration, prayer, reflection, and shared remembrance come together. The ecumenical orientation brings together people from various Christian traditions and makes it clear that grief does not have to be borne alone. The calm atmosphere of St. Augustine invites people to acknowledge their personal feelings and give space to their faith, questions, and hopes.

Community That Supports

The service explicitly addresses relatives and friends of those who have died by suicide. Even those who do not feel closely connected to a congregation will find here a place of respectful remembrance and human closeness. The shared pause offers a faith experience characterized by dignity, compassion, and spiritual community.

Conversation Offer Afterwards

After the service, there is an opportunity to speak with the staff of AKL e.V. This accompanying offer opens up space for personal encounters, questions, and sharing experiences in grief. The event thus combines religious experience, pastoral care, and tangible human support.

Invitation to Those Affected and Interested

The ecumenical service is marked by remembrance, connection, and encouragement. Visitors can expect a dignified celebration with space for silence, prayer, and encounter. Those who have lost someone to suicide or wish to show their solidarity are invited to experience this special moment in community live.
