Episode 53: Remembering with Hope: Memorial Stones, Reflecting on God’s Faithfulness, and Practical Ideas for Pregnancy and Infant Loss Awareness Month with Jennie Parks and Kristin Hernandez
Description
October is Pregnancy and Infant Loss Awareness Month—a special time to remember and honor our Hope Babies, share our stories, and shine the light of Christ into the darkness. But what is the purpose of remembrance? What does Scripture teach us about it? And how might we remember not only our babies, but also all that God has done for us?
In this episode of the Hope Mommies Podcast, Kristin Hernandez and Jennie Parks reflect on the significance of remembrance—not only as a way to honor and cherish our children, but also as a way to recall God’s goodness and faithfulness in the midst of grief. Together, they explore biblical examples of remembrance, from the memorial stones in Joshua 4 to the observance of holy days and practices like communion.
Kristin and Jennie also share personal rhythms of remembrance, such as journaling, prayer, setting up “memorial stones,” telling stories, and celebrating anniversaries. You’ll also hear practical ways to commemorate this month, including resources offered by Hope Mommies throughout October.
No matter how you choose to walk through this month, our prayer is that you would feel the nearness of our loving Father as you remember.
