"My grief journey has led me down so many paths, many of which I could not have navigated without the support of Red Bird. In the past four years since we lost our son, Griffin, I've found myself searching for answers, for truth. I've always been able to find it in the prayers, the heart-felt talks, the tears, and the laughter I've found with my Red Bird family. Yes, laughter. What I've learned in support groups and retreats is that I CAN laugh again. I can find joy in knowing that Griffin is filled with nothing but joy and peace, and I will forever be grateful for Red Bird helping me to see that."

“I’ve lost 10 precious souls through miscarriage. Bennett is just one of my 10 miscarriages. Red Bird ministries has helped in my grief and healing by connecting me with other women who have also experienced loss in some way.
Because they have experienced loss and suffering - they get you! You can talk about your loss and sufferings and not feel like you have to hold back.”
Amanda & Brady Boyer
Madilyn Claire was born on July 11, 2017. Shortly after we were told about her terminal diagnosis. When we heard about Red Bird, we decided to attend the support group. She passed away peacefully at home on June 5, I will forever be grateful for the 22 months we had with her.
From the first meeting I instantly lost that feeling of being alone in a room full of people. It’s an indescribable peace that comes along with opening up and listening to others who have been dealt this cross to bear. The friendships I have gained are priceless and I look forward to continuing on this journey with them.

"It’s a safe place to really share our loss with people who understand. And sharing is healing."
Grant and Nicky Pecoraro
For 18 years, I never felt like I was going to be okay with the idea that Adam had to suffer, and suffering. But when we left the Red Bird workshop, I turned to Grant and told him, “we are going to be okay.”

“I received this beauty at work today from one of my friends.
Although I’m not ready to submit myself to Jesus, I know my time with Him is coming, and I am so grateful that you walked into my life and showed me a better, more sufficient life than the depression I was living in. It’s all a work in progress, but I’m slowly getting there. I just want you to know Red Bird has impacted my life, and I can’t wait to get there.”
John & Jill Comeaux
"I cannot say enough about Red Bird Ministries and what it has done for me! It is such a unique ministry because one is able to draw upon the Sacraments (Confession, Holy Mass & Adoration, etc) from our Catholic faith, which greatly brings on healing at a deep spiritual level.
Red Bird Ministries provides resources & is there to help aid us in grieving for our beloved children while the waves of grief continue to surface layers of pain & sorrow. We are truly blessed to be a part of this authentic group of apostles of mercy. "
Brittney & Derek LaFosse
“In 2019, we lost more than I thought that I could handle. On February 25, 2019, we lost our son Matthew through a miscarriage. We realized that bad things could happen to good people, but were we good people? What did I do to deserve this pain?
We were drowning and trying to stay above water. God sent us a life vest through Red Bird Ministries. They helped us find our resurrection story. Through workshops, retreats, blogs, and other support opportunities. We were able to find that we were not alone.”

“God is always in control of my life and the fuel for my soul. However, Red Bird Ministries has brought me fuel from God through the people who serve. We all share in the support of that common loss. There is not a day that I do not thank RBM for the love and support it has given the community and me I have found. I only wish that every parent that has experienced the loss of a child would be given the same opportunity. While I am happy, my child is in heaven. I wish that his earthly life would have been longer.”
