Prayers go out to all who have lost a child – whether it be to an illness, accident, murder, suicide, in war, natural disaster, drugs, miscarriage, child trafficking, or abortion. And, in a very special way, prayers go out to all who have lost a child through adoption, which can feel like a death when you say goodbye to your baby, even though you made a beautiful decision by choosing life for your child.

May God hold you all in the palm of His hand, and give you His love, grace, peace, forgiveness (for abortion) and comfort. And may our Blessed Mother, who very well knows the pain of losing a Child, wrap you in her mantle and surround you in her comfort and love. ❤
