We Listen

Healing Hearts fosters a Christ-centered environment where families come together to listen to
one another and share their unique feelings freely and without judgment. As a specialized group, Healing Hearts acknowledges the importance of sharing the pain and life-altering experiences associated with the death of a child.

To aid recovery, you deserve to voice your wide range of emotions, thoughts, and questions with those who understand and have dealt with similar issues. You may find that some of those closest to you are not as sensitive to your loss and are unable to effectively listen and talk to you. Some may even, unknowingly, make inappropriate comments ― You can try again ― or minimize your pain, comparing it to losses they have experienced, which can be hurtful. There will be times when you will long to talk about your child and you shouldn’t have to worry about upsetting others or feeling awkward. After all, your child is a significant element of your life, one to be celebrated and remembered. Healing Hearts understands and is near to provide the ear you need.

We Reassure

Be confident in knowing that you are not alone in your sorrows. Unfortunately, many families face losses daily and mourn in isolation without an assurance that there is hope. Although you will have to persist on your own uncharted path towards restoration, Healing Hearts can identify with your struggles. We will encourage you every step of the way.

There will be dark times where you may stumble and fall, experiencing extreme heartaches, reliving painful memories, and pondering why your life was altered so traumatically. However, there will be moments when you will be able to cope and travel further as you remember your beautiful child — the precious gift you created. You will experience many intense feelings and take many different turns — emotionally, spiritually, and mentally, causing you to feel lost and unstable.

Despite the detours and setbacks, you don’t have to feel isolated in your journey. We assure you, through faith and the support of caring and understanding individuals, that you can move forward.


We Grow

There are no shortcuts in navigating grief; it is an uncertain process that encompasses different stages, emotions, and revelations. Even so, you will evolve through your pain and find stable, clear ground. Healing Hearts will comfort and guide you as you progress towards peace and acceptance.

There are many positive steps that you can take to heal, such as honoring your child’s life, seeking spiritual guidance, or bonding with others who have experienced similar trials, yet there is no quick remedy to take away the pain. As time goes on, healing begins, and recovery manifests, you will be able to breathe easier, see ahead of your pain, face the future, and focus on your child’s precious moments rather than be consumed with the loss of life, plans, and dreams. Your shattered heart will mend and the weight of loss will lift. Eventually, your internal capacity to live with loss will build strength and confidence, enabling you to endure and experience new journeys in life and even help others find their way through the maze of grief.
