…after considering all that I have heard and witnessed throughout the Diocese, I have discerned a vision for the future of our local Church. It is a future filled with hope, mercy, and hospitality. It is a future where we truly fulfill St. Paul’s image of the Body of Christ, where we are united beyond our parish boundaries with our unique gifts and talents and expressions of worship. Therefore, our work will commence under the banner, United in Christ. For it is only when we are united that we as a diocese can bring forth the Kingdom of God.
On this episode of Catholic Forum, after a news update from The Dialog, we talk with the president and co-founder of Red Bird Ministries, Kelly Breaux. Kelly and her husband, Ryan, did not find the help they needed from their church when their two children passed away. With God’s help, they decided to form Red Bird Ministries, an organization that systematically guides individuals and couples through the complexity and trauma that happens with the loss of a child through miscarriage and stillbirth or as an infant, child, adolescent, or adult.
