John Neufeld Miscarriage has touched the lives of many people in the church. All too often this life crisis remains unaddressed.
Some individuals resolve the loss in a healthy fashion and go on with life.
Unresolved grief reduces a person's quality of life and ability to function. This is not a surprise because our churches place a high value on the sanctity of life. Unfortunately, the practices of our churches do not match our convictions. It should also be remembered that many women have more than one miscarriage. This means that for every two or three children in the nursery or on the cradle roll of the church, there has been one miscarriage.
