There is a reason grief retreats for mothers matter.
When a child dies, the world keeps moving, but your heart does not. You deserve space to breathe, weep, and be gently reminded that Jesus meets you here.

New Mercy Moms: the gathering is a Christian grief retreat created for bereaved mothers to experience rest, the life-giving truth of the Bible, and genuine connection with other loss moms. We will look to Jesus together for hope in the darkest valley, with space for tears, quiet, and prayer. More details to come.
