Out of the Depths: Your Companion after Pregnancy Or Infant Loss

The Out of the Depths series addresses common pastoral crises
in a faithful, encouraging, and factual manner that provides support to
parishioners in crisis beyond the initial pastoral conversation. These
inexpensive 64-page booklets can be given out to parishioners when they
bring their recent diagnosis, crisis, or trauma to the pastor as a way
to continue to provide care throughout the difficult season. Each
booklet begins with a thoughtful consideration of the topic at hand,
which is followed up by 30 brief devotions. These devotions are designed
to be manageable in an overwhelming time, encouraging, and honest. The Out of the Depths booklets are essential care resources to be given out by pastors, Stephen Ministers, and congregational care teams.
