Grief ministry: Share in Your Sorrow Part 2

We are called to be a communion of Saints. I know that often times it is very difficult for we in our society to tell others that we are suffering. We like to suffer alone for some reason. I think it's something the devil really likes because it's a way to cut us off and can lead to despair. Maybe the initial feelings are from God, He calls us to withdraw into our room, alone; so that we can lean on those Saints that are part of our Community that sometimes we who haven't passed on don't always notice. The trick is to not get stuck in our room. When we recognize that the Saints are praying with us and for us then we are called back out into the community, different from the experience but not despaired. 
Here are some 
Saints to pray with:  

• St. Catherine of Siena: Patroness of Miscarriages.  
  
• St Gianna Beretta Molla: lost two babies by miscarriage.  She delivered on Good Friday and died a week later. 
  
• St. Catherine of Sweden: Patroness Against Abortions and Miscarriages.  The Holy Spirit is probably hinting at something here by linking Abortions and Miscarriage. 
  
• St. Zelie Martin: Mother of St. Therese of Lisieux, her husband, St. Louis Martin, and her had four children die before the children were five.  Often mentioned their children in Heaven to their living daughters. The following letter is from her.
  
  
  St. Zelie’s letter 
  After Zelie’s sister-in-law also experienced a miscarriage, Zelie reached out to her through a letter. “When I had to close the eyes of my dear children and bury them, I felt deep sorrow, but I was always resigned to it,” she wrote. “I did not regret the pains and the sorrows which I had endured for them. Many persons said to me: ‘It would have been better for you if you had never had them.’ I could not bear that kind of talk. I do not think that the sorrows and the troubles endured could possibly be compared with the eternal happiness of my children with God. Besides, they are not lost to me forever; life is short and filled with crosses, and we shall find them again in Heaven. Above all, it was on the death of my first child that I felt more deeply the happiness of having a child in Heaven, for God showed me in a noticeable way that He accepted my sacrifice. Through the intercession of my little angel, I received a very extraordinary grace.”  ​
