I feel a little nudge in my heart, and I'm trying to pray into it (even though I'm still struggling in the prayer department right now). A few good friends have told me that perhaps I should join a support group of some kind for women with infertility, miscarriages, and failed adoptions (from now on if I talk about 'women who have lost babies', I am including all of these types of losses in one group, okay?). After thinking about it, it occurred to me that I know A LOT of women who could benefit from a group like this - and many of them are nearby, right here in Friendly Manitoba. So... the little nudge in my heart came as an idea, "What if YOU (Heather) would start a support group?". Oh my! I wouldn't even know where to begin, where to have it, what to talk about... so, could you please pray into this with me? I need your intercessory help. Also, if you are someone who would be interested in joining such a group, please let me know by emailing me at the link above ("Email Me"). My current thought is a once-a-month meeting in a church somewhere? Wow - can't believe I'm putting this out there, because it feels like a committment.

If I were in MB I would join!
I love you and am praying for you.
I think that sounds like an awesome idea!
I would love to join- but it depend where in Manitoba you would have it :)
I think that's a wonderful idea, and I bet there's tons of women who'd benefit from a group like that. Sadly, more than we can even imagine!
I think that is a fabulous idea. I don't think there is enough support for women experiencing these hurts. There is no one better to start a support group for women who have lost babies or have struggled to have children than someone who has been there or rather IS there.
I've nominated your blog (on my blog) for a blog award, fyi.
there is no way that you SHOULDn't do this! :)
but i'll pray about it.
and i wish i could be a part of it.
wow what an amazing ministry that would be, and such an emotional undertaking! I know when I had my miscarriage it was so amazing to talk to other women who had been through the same thing
