Welcome to
Sacred Sorrows
Every day in the U.S, 1200 women's lives are forever
changed when they receive the news that their son,
daughter or grandchild has died. These deaths leave
women feeling alone and unmoored in their grief.
Sacred Sorrows was founded by one of these women.
You are not alone anymore.
Welcome to peace, hope and healing.
This message is for you:

"All shall be well, and all shall be well, and all manner of things shall be well."
