Listening

Hearts

 

We're a Gathering of Bereaved Mothers... Who have children "gone before"... We get together to listen to one another, encourage one another,  share ideas, and talk about our kids in Heaven...

 ***If you are attending our Knoxville meeting, please take note of the detour around the Henley Street Bridge.***


We listen and watch... daily...
moment by moment, with our hearts...
Thank you for visiting our site... Please feel free to light a Memorial Candle, on the right, for your Loved one...
submit your child's picture and/or a poem you have written. You may also request a copy of our newsletter by clicking on the "contact" option in the top right-hand corner of the site.

“The soil from our memories is sprinkled with seeds of LOVE and watered by our tears of LOSS. Our pain is warmed with the sunshine of fellowship as we wait and watch for tender young sprouts of HOPE for a new normal. We will continue to listen to our hearts and the hearts of each other as we travel this journey together.”
