Everyone who enters the covenant of marriage hopes for every happiness that life has to offer.
God created the world to reflect His Goodness and Love. Unfortunately, the world became an imperfect place because of “The Fall”. After The Fall, death entered the world.
Part of the covenant of marriage includes being open to the “transmission of life” through the conjugal act of marriage.
Sometimes in our openness to having children life appears to deal us a cruel blow.
Unfortunately, babies die in the womb and outside of the womb through ectopic pregnancy, miscarriage, stillbirth and infant death.
Many bereaved parents are angry
and disappointed with God after the death of their baby or babies.

When MORNING LIGHT MINISTRY is contacted by a bereaved parent we offer, in loving memory of their baby or babies, several blessed religious mementos and other mementos. (Click here for a description of these mementos)
In response to such devastating losses, MORNING LIGHT MINISTRY has written and produced several written resources:
1) MORNING LIGHT: MISCARRIAGE,
STILLBIRTH AND EARLY INFANT DEATH FROM A
CATHOLIC PERSPECTIVE.

MORNING LIGHT MINISTRY also assists mothers and fathers who choose to carry a baby to full-term despite an adverse prenatal diagnosis such as Anencephaly, Trisomy 18, Trisomy 13, Down Syndrome, Potter's Syndrome or Spina Bifida. We have written a booklet that we send at no charge to any parents who find themselves in this heartbreaking situation. This booklet is called, HOPE IN TURMOIL: A GUIDE FOR DECISION-MAKING AFTER RECEIVING AN ADVERSE PRENATAL DIAGNOSIS REGARDING YOUR BABY. (Click here for a description of this booklet, testimonials from parents who have brought their babies to full-term despite an adverse prenatal diagnosis and ordering information)
MORNING LIGHT MINISTRY also offers help to couples or bereaved parents who are experiencing difficulty in conceiving a child or experiencing recurrent losses. We have written a booklet, FERTILITY CHALLENGES FROM A CATHOLIC PERSPECTIVE. (Click here for a description of this booklet, testimonials from bereaved parents and couples and ordering information)
