“I learned so much! I feel very prepared to help people process grief of any kind.”
I used to believe to help someone grieving you had to have experienced the same type of loss. Anyone can have humility and love while inviting someone to healing. Don’t let the fear of not having that experience restrain you from reaching out or responding to their request.

- “I never heard about this subject. Everything was new and helpful.”
- “Loved this! Loved the teaching and the case studies made it come to life!”
- ” Very good. Very informative. Loved the Biblical aspect of class.”
- “The material was fresh. The stories were really helpful and engaging!”
- “Wonderful course! I truly appreciated the heart and care of the instructors. Their commitment to the sufficiency of Scripture was refreshing. I wish all church leaders could hear the wisdom they have to share. You’re on the right track. Keep doing what you’re doing!”
- “You both were excellent trainers! I have been praying and looking for great training programs to be a part of on-boarding new leaders to my ministry. RLN will be my #1 resource. Every faith-based organization dealing with trauma or grief surrounding pregnancy should take this training. Through case studies, scriptural support, knowledgeable leaders, and group discussion my eyes were opened to the many losses surrounding reproductive grief.”

Invitation to Hope in the Church
Pastors and ministry leaders have a unique opportunity to break the silence of reproductive grief and loss.
