The grief of infertility and the sorrow from loss whether from an early miscarriage to late term stillbirth leaves our hearts aching and our cribs we purchased,”in faith”; empty. But God is here, in the NOW, to heal us from our heartache. If you are experiencing the longing for child or the sharp pain from losing your baby, please join us this Saturday, August 24th for a time of healing for your heart and peace for your soul.
We love you and are praying for you.

Miscarried, Stillbirth, Infant Loss Prayer
“Merciful Father, the loss is heartbreaking. I feel as if I am walking through the valley of the shadow of death and as if I died a little, too. But Your Word tells me to fear no evil, for You are with me. Father, You said You would never leave me for forsake me. I ask for your presence now to bless and comfort my heart as I mourn over the loss of life in my womb. I praise You when You say that You will give a full life span. I’m asking for my next pregnancy to be full term and our child full of life. Father, as I pray your Word I am velieving and trusting You over my futhre. Thank You. In Jesus’ name, amen.”
