"While We're Waiting" Weekends
Welcome to "While We're Waiting"...
We would like to invite you to a “While We’re Waiting Weekend" event, a variety of faith-based retreats designed specifically for parents who have faced the death of a child.
When a parent loses a child, they are faced with the reality that they may have many years ahead of them on this earth before they are reunited with that child in Heaven. As we face those seemingly interminable years, we have some choices to make.
**How are we going to live while we're waiting for that glorious reunion?
**Are we going to abandon our faith or apply our faith?
**Are we going to allow our grief to make us bitter, or allow God to use that grief to make us better?
**How are we going to live so that our Lord and our child are honored by our lives?
We offer three types of retreats at this time:
--A one-day mini-retreat just for bereaved Moms
--A weekend-long retreat just for bereaved Dads
--A weekend-long retreat for bereaved couples and singles
For more information about each of these retreats, please click the appropriate tab above. There is no cost for any of these events; however, a love offering will be taken at each one to help offset the expense of hosting these retreat. We do not want cost to keep anyone from being able to attend.
None of us know how many more years we have on this earth before we are reunited with our children in Heaven. So, our main focus at these events will be discussing how we’re going to live while we’re waiting for that glorious reunion. We believe that we honor our children and our Lord the most through our healing, and we will be seeking to begin or continue that healing process through these weekend.
