How to get involved?

Become a Red Bird Parish Advocate

Help us bring Red Bird to your diocese, parish, or family. Our hope is to provide local churches with the training, tools to existing or new grief support group programs that foster both parish connection and nurture authentic accompaniment for bereaved families.

Ways to advocate for Red Bird and other families of loss.

  • Order tri-fold brochures for your parish here.

  • Encourage your parish to place the brochures around the parish: in the confessional, in his desk office, in the cemetery office , and in the back of church.

  • List your name as an advocate in your parish bulletin for families to reach out when a loss occurs.

  • Bring RBM to your area by hosting a grieving couples workshop and/or support group bible study.

 
But when he comes, the Spirit of truth, he will guide you to all truth. He will not speak on his own, but he will speak what he hears, and will declare to you the things that are coming. He will glorify me..
— John 16:13-14

Become a Contributor

Our ministry team is seeking new contributors. We support our contributors + partners by cross-promoting their efforts that align with our Faith.

 

New Contributor Inquiry questions:

  1. Are you a woman/man of faith with a heart open to share how God met you in the trenches of your grief and invited you to restoration?

  2. Do you desire to be the hands and feet of Christ ready to serve with a mind that speaks the Truth?

  3. Do you desire to contribute and develop ways to bring healing and restoration to the world by letting your light penetrate the darkness of grief?

  4. Do you desire to be apart of the change of how the world views grief support and go after the one lost sheep?

  5. Do you believe that grief is a missing touchpoint of evangelization in the Church and an invitation back into community and full communion with God?

If you answered yes to all of these questions, we want to hear from you!

 

Help us with our national outreach by bringing
Red Bird Ministries to your community/parish.

Red Bird Ministries is seeking to touch an area of grief that no other ministry has done so far - in creating a program exclusively for parents who have experienced the unthinkable, the loss of their child.

Has this ministry served you in a special way? Would you like to create a fundraising event for our cause?
