Emmaus Ministry for Grieving Parents

The Emmaus Ministry for Grieving Parents is a Catholic ministry serving the spiritual needs of parents whose children of any age have died by any cause, no matter how long ago.   We offer Half-Hour, One-Hour, One-Day, and Weekend Spiritual Retreats.  We work with Catholic dioceses, parishes, and parents to bring the peace, comfort, and hope of this ministry to grieving parents wherever you are located--AT NO COST.  All are welcome.

Coming to our spiritual retreats, grieving parents give themselves the gift of getting away from everyday life to focus on their spiritual journeys... to focus on where God is in their lives right now....where their deceased children are.  To focus on the fact that life for their children has changed, not ended... That they will see their children again... That the promise of eternal life is real and true.   As grieving parents, we need this spiritual nourishment over and over again.
