I didn’t want to go to church after my son died.
Two days after Sebastian was born, my husband and I took him to New Heights Church. Twenty-three years of memories can be found in various rooms of those buildings. Sebastian, who was dedicated as a newborn in the sanctuary, wore a christening gown made especially for him by my grandmother. He grew up attending Sunday School and AWANA classes and making lifelong friendships. During the summers, he ventured into vacation bible school and church camps.
As our church grew, it began having services at four locations around town. Our family attended the West Campus because it was smaller, and our son and daughter liked the youth group. We knew almost everyone at the West Campus, but after Sebastian died by suicide, I stopped going.
I couldn’t go.
