We are building a community of women who have gone through miscarriage, still birth, and all unborn losses. We come together for fellowship and host the annual mass for little souls in October. St Zelie and St Louis are our patrons as they were a holy couple who suffered the deaths of 4 children in infancy. They continued to raise holy daughters (including St Therese of Liseux) who became religious sisters. St Therese asked for her heavenly siblings’ intercession. Once after receiving an answer to prayer she wrote “From that time my devotion for these little brothers and sisters increased; I loved to talk to them and tell them of all the sorrows of this exile, and of my wish to join them soon in our Eternal Home.” (From “Story of a Soul) St Zelie echoed this by saying “We shall find our little ones up above”.
If you have suffered the loss of a little one at any time and are looking for community please send us an email. Please know of our prayers as you grieve. You are not alone. Email is the best way to get info on upcoming events. There is also a St Zelie Ministry What’s App group you can join.
If you are interested in getting involved in this ministry such as being a resource to someone going through loss please reach out to Ali or Jenny.
