Please tell me when The Feast of the Holy Innocents.
I lost a baby and really want to know when the mass is that honors lost children.
 
The Latin Church instituted the feast of the Holy Innocents at a date now unknown, not before the end of the fourth and not later than the end of the fifth century. It is, with the feasts of St. Stephen and St. John, first found in the Leonine Sacramentary, dating from about 485. To the Philocalian Calendar of 354 it is unknown. The Latins keep it on 28 December, the Greeks on 29 December, the Syrians and Chaldeans on 27 December.

As mentioned in the previous posts the Feast of the Holy Innocents is Tuesday December 28. In NYC at the Church of the Holy Innocents all the unborn children are remembered at the Shrine of the Unborn. You may enter your child’s name to be entered in the Book which rests at the Shrine.
Holy Innocent Martyrs, pray for us and for the unborn

At Holy Innocents we have Traditional Latin Masses celebrated every day of the week with High Mass said every Sunday, Wednesday, Friday and Holy days. This Christmas we will have a Solemn Midnight Mass celebrated according to the 1962 Missal. Solemn Mass will also be said Saturday Morning at 10AM, Sunday Morning at 10AM and Tuesday 6PM.
May you and your loved ones have a great Christmas and prosperous New Year.
