New Mercy Moms

03/01/2026

No one sees what this team does behind the scenes.

And that’s exactly why I need to tell you about them.

This team. 🤍

Every week, I hear stories.
From grieving mothers who say:

“I didn’t feel so alone.”
“For the first time since my child died, I felt seen and understood.”
“This is helping me have faith.”
“Maybe Jesus really does care.”

That impact isn’t accidental.
It’s prayerful. Intentional. Costly.

It’s women and men who answer emails with tenderness.
Who pray over every care box before it ships.
Who steward donor gifts with integrity.
Who show up when the stories are heavy.

They aren’t chasing attention.
They are carrying hope.

And here’s what I didn’t expect—

Serving alongside them has given me a bigger vision.

I can see it so clearly now:
A world where no grieving mother feels alone in her loss.
A world where she knows Jesus meets her in her pain — not with clichés, but with real comfort and steady presence.

Together, we are making a bigger impact than I originally imagined possible.
And I believe we are just getting started.

I’m considering hosting an online event to share more about what God is doing through New Mercy Moms — and how others can join us in meeting mothers in their grief and giving hope.

If that interests you, send me a DM. 🤍

Because this isn’t about one person.
It’s about a movement of people saying yes to showing up for grieving mothers — together.

God has never once “almost” provided for New Mercy Moms.

And the reason that matters might surprise you.

This week I sent a note to our team because I couldn’t shake one simple reality: God has been faithfully providing for NMM and the grieving moms we serve, again and again, in ways I could never manufacture.

Here’s what I’m taking with me (and maybe you can, too):

𝟭) 𝗣𝗮𝘂𝘀𝗲 𝗹𝗼𝗻𝗴 𝗲𝗻𝗼𝘂𝗴𝗵 𝘁𝗼 𝗻𝗼𝘁𝗶𝗰𝗲 𝘄𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝘆𝗼𝘂’𝘃𝗲 𝗯𝗲𝗲𝗻 𝗰𝗮𝗿𝗿𝗶𝗲𝗱 𝘁𝗵𝗿𝗼𝘂𝗴𝗵.

Not in a “tie it up with a bow” way. Grief is real. Weakness is real.

But so is this:
- meaningful healing this side of heaven
- strength that showed up on days it should not have
- comfort that didn’t come from us

Sometimes the most honest worship is simply naming what’s true.

𝟮) 𝗥𝗲𝗺𝗲𝗺𝗯𝗲𝗿 𝘁𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗵𝗼𝗽𝗲 𝗶𝘀 𝗻𝗼𝘁 𝗮 𝗽𝗲𝗿𝘀𝗼𝗻𝗮𝗹𝗶𝘁𝘆 𝘁𝗿𝗮𝗶𝘁.

For believers, our hope is a Person.

Jesus is not a vague idea of “things will get better.”

He is a living Savior who meets us in the ache and holds us steady when nothing else can.

That changes how we lead, serve, and show up.

𝟯) 𝗟𝗼𝗼𝗸 𝗮𝘁 𝘆𝗼𝘂𝗿 “𝗽𝗿𝗼𝘃𝗶𝘀𝗶𝗼𝗻” 𝗰𝗮𝘁𝗲𝗴𝗼𝗿𝘆 𝗹𝗶𝘀𝘁, 𝗻𝗼𝘁 𝗷𝘂𝘀𝘁 𝘆𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗯𝗮𝗻𝗸 𝗮𝗰𝗰𝗼𝘂𝗻𝘁.

Yes, finances matter. God has provided what we’ve needed for care boxes, the blog, the podcast, and email support.

But He’s also provided people.

Our team is the gift:
care boxes, podcasting, blogging, emailing, behind-the-scenes details… all of it. I’m genuinely grateful.

And if I’m honest, I often feel weak for what God has called me to. Then He reminds me: this is exactly where He gets the most glory. Clay vessels. Real dependence. Real fruit.

Today, I’m choosing to pause and say thank You.

What’s one way you’ve seen God provide lately (big or small)?

And sometimes what you need most is simple:
a quiet place,
safe faces,
God’s Word open,
and someone to pray with you.

It’s holiday season, but your heart is broken after you lost your child.

Here’s a little article I wrote on my grief during this time of year.

This is helpful for friend and family of bereaved parents to read as well.

When the unimaginable happens in life, we naturally ask "What am I going to do now?" But perhaps, the better question is to ask "What is God going to do?" as our eyes are forced to look to him
To quote my dear friend and counselor - "Our pain will push us somewhere. Our pain needs to push us to God."

Watch the video to see what God is doing! Bringing life from what only felt like death.

At New Mercy Moms, we are reaching tens of thousands of mothers all over the world with the hope and healing of Jesus.

On this Mother’s Day, we pause to recognize those among us whose celebration is touched by sorrow—the mothers who mourn. In the often quiet pain of this day, may the Lord fill you with moments of peace amid the memories, comfort from those who love and surround you, and a loving reminder of His nearness to each and every one of us.

I wanted to share a song for this day to express what sometimes can be hard to say.

It's Called "Rest in You" by All Sons and Daughters. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qmTrdR1JL5s

In the very end it says " You Cannot change, yet You change everything" As we grieve the loss that we cannot change may we remember we have a God who is Constant and Faithful and He promises to change our mourning into joy one day. We will probably only experience this in part here on earth but we remain hopeful and expectant because of our Beautiful Savior who died and rose to bring us full and abundant life with Him.
