Faith, grief, and the work of healing

Reverend Alicia Dawn brings together personal experience, spiritual reflection, and practical guidance on child loss. The book addresses what a bereaved parent may be experiencing, offers prayers, and considers how friends and caregivers can respond thoughtfully. Its guiding idea, “God restores,” frames healing as a process that can coexist with pain, rather than as its disappearance. The focus extends beyond private grief to the ways families, clergy, counselors, and friends can acknowledge loss and support those living with it.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Parents and grandparents coping with the loss of a child
  • Clergy, counselors, and friends seeking guidance on supporting bereaved families
  • Readers interested in a faith-centered perspective on grief and healing

Book overview

Waiting for the Cry: A Spiritual Journey through Child Loss is written for anyone who has experienced child loss or knows someone who has lost a child. It is for parents, grandparents, clergy, counselors, and friends of the bereaved. It's a compilation of personal story, spiritual reflection, and sound advice.

 

The book's contents are deeply rooted in the author's process of healing after experiencing one of the hardest losses anyone could face- the loss of a child. As you read the book, you will gain insight into:

  • What is Going on Inside a Loss Parent
  • What not to Say
  • Prayers that Help

 

The book's mantra is "God restores."

 

Each chapter explores the resiliency and thoughtfulness needed to persevere through the emotion of loss. With perceptiveness it's noted that healing is not the absence of pain, but a process of transformation through the pain.

 

Speak about the silent suffering. Support those experiencing loss. Believe healing is possible!
