Often, pregnancy loss is met with silence. But every story deserves to be heard. Every child deserves to be remembered. And every grieving parent deserves a community that can speak comfort into the ache. Sacred Care equips leaders to become that presence. 💬 From the Author “I wrote this book for every faith leader who’s ever whispered a prayer in a hospital hallway, who’s ever sat in silence with a grieving parent, unsure what to say. I wrote it because grief is sacred ground—and we are called to walk it tenderly, not avoid it. I hope Sacred Care offers you the courage, language, and love needed to step into that space.” — Rev.
