As a way to honor the child I lost through miscarriage, Peter Mark, and to share your burden, please allow me to pray for you or your loved ones who are carrying the cross of infertility or loss of a child.

It is an honor to pray for you! Thank you for the privilege!
Also, please remember that if you are in within driving distance of Peoria, IL there is an upcoming event for women who have lost a child through miscarriage or infancy loss. A Mother's Love is a one day healing retreat held at St. Philomena's in Peoria. It is free of charge, lunch is provided, registration is suggested by not required, and it is open to women of any faith (though the content is Catholic).
Hat tip to The Practicing Catholic for the image of the sculpture.
Please pray for my cousin who lost her 2 1/2 month old son 2 years ago while at the babysitters. I feel as though God had a plan for this child (he saved his parents marriage) and I trust in his plan. However it is not always easy when we are suffering to see things in that light. My cousin is still struggling deeply with this loss. Please pray for her to somehow come to trust in His plan and find peace with it.
ReplyDeleteMy cousin just suffered the loss of miscarriage. Her heart is broken.
ReplyDeletePlease pray for my friend who just lost her four month old daughter. Also, please pray for me as I just found out I will soon miscarry. It is very difficult to wait for something like that to happen. Bless you for praying for all of us and being a support to all those who are struggling.
ReplyDeleteI would like you to pray for a friend of mine who is suffering with infertility. It is a very difficult cross to bear. (Interestingly enough, she JUST called me as I was typing this. We don't talk on the phone very often so that is exceptionally coincidental.) Anyway, prayers would be much appreciated! We should all use the opportunity to pray to St. Gerard tomorrow since it is his feast day! Thank you!
ReplyDeleteWe've lost two babies from miscarriage this year at 10 weeks each. Another woman I know just suffered a miscarriage after trying for 6 years to get pregnant.
ReplyDeleteIt is very comforting to know others experience this loss! Thanks for this!
My sweet sister had a miscarriage in march and has struggled to get pregnant again. We don't talk much but i know how deeply she's hurting.thank you for your prayers
ReplyDeleteFor friends who have lost babies in the past year... TL, PB, RD, IN, AB, and especially for those who hadn't yet announced their pregnancies and are grieving alone.
ReplyDeleteFor friends who adopted a baby. He died this week at 4 months old.
ReplyDeleteFor a childhood friend, Leah, and her husband, who have been trying to conceive for three years. Her husband was also recently diagnosed with cancer.
ReplyDeleteFor discernment and peace in trying to conceive again after 3 high-risk pregnancies, including the loss of a son.
ReplyDeletePlease pray for my friend Beth who is expecting. She has 3 living biological childern, a beautiful adopted daughter, and 3 babies in heaven.
ReplyDeletePleas pray for me, C, to have healing to be able to conceive and carry a child to full term. (to date we have never conceived.) My husband and I have been trying for 3+ years to have a child. But we keep having to reset the clock with each surgery I have... it is currently 7 months since my last surgery. (My heart still says 3+ years.)
ReplyDeletePlease also pray for my friends, A, M, and R. They too are all struggling with trying to have children, but are unable to, so far.
Thank you for this ministry! God bless you!
Thank you in advance for your prayers =) I could use them for myself and my husband. We've been trying to have a baby for over a year now and it's quite discouraging. Also for friends who are known to God. This is a beautiful work of mercy that you're doing.
ReplyDeletePlease pray for me and my husband. I just found out yesterday that our baby died at 8 weeks gestation. I am having a d&c tomorrow.
ReplyDeletePlease pray for our twins who died very early in 2005. We did not give them names. I pray for Peter as well. God bless you!
