βFor the first time in my loss journey, I felt safe and seen. I was intentional about building relationships with these women who rallied around me in their own grief. Because of Gathering Hope, I faced my grief head-on. β
βWhen I walked in the room, it was a weirdly unifying and empowering feeling to know that I was around women who had all experienced the very thing that so many people are afraid to talk about. There was a lot of love and bravery represented in that room, and it made me feel stronger.β
βFinding Gathering Hope is where I finally felt like I could be okay. Attending the annual Gathering is where I was like, wow, I can do thisβ¦ I CAN live my life and still miss my little girl. It hasnβt been easy, but getting to meet others in this sisterhood is what really really helped me learn how to live again.β
β Itβs freeing and comforting and encouraging and HEALING when youβre surrounded by other women who have also walked the path of this βsucky sisterhood.ββ
βYou will feel loved and accepted. You will be honored for your bravery. Your child will be recognized and acknowledged. You will be changed. Please come. Iβd be honored to have you sit at my table. β
βThis night was amazing, beautiful and overall completely healing. Thank you so much.β
βFrom the moment I walked on to the property I could feel the sweet presence of Jesus. Been a long time since I have been a part of something where everyone was unified and ready to love people.β
βGathering Hope has had a huge impact on my healing journey. I no longer feel alone and it has helped me to learn celebrate my babies instead of only grieving them.β
βI felt so alone after my loss. I felt like the world went on and I was stuck missing this person who was supposed to be here. Iβm so thankful that I found a community that understood, that allowed me to share my loss.β
