The Shrine to the Unborn was dedicated on July 12, 1998 by His Excellency Heny J. Mansell Bishop of the Diocese of Buffalo. It is located in St. Mary’s Cemetery, Rt. 60, Dunkirk, NY. Annual Observance is held in July of every year.

Repairs to the shrine in 2014

After 16 years the Unborn Shrine was overgrown with vines and plant material causing structural damage to the pergola. Thanks to a generous donation we were able to make repairs that should renew it for another 15 years. Vines and overgrown plants were removed, the structure was repaired, reinforced and a protective stain was applied. New plants and soil were added.

Thank you to all who contributed and helped with labor to complete this project.
