Hope for a Mom's Heart: Help and Healing

Your loss of a child does not make sense. The emptiness, the pain, and the anger all leave you feeling hopeless; and you wonder how anything beneficial can come of this in the future. By focusing your attention on God and His Word, hope can replace these and other emotions you are experiencing and allow you to find the help and healing that you need. Hope for a Mom’s Heart is written from the heart of one mom to your heart.

Merri Ellen Wright is the mother of seven children—four living and three in Heaven. She is the wife of Pastor Greg Wright; and they, along with their children, live in St. George, Utah. Merri Ellen is highly involved in all aspects of their church and has a special place in her heart for mothers, who like herself, have children in Heaven. Through sharing her experiences of loss, her desire is that these moms will also find comfort and hope.
