So much love... and so many prayers...

I will be honest...   It feels strange that I get so much peace..  and yes, I am hesitant to admit, even joy, from this odd calling.  I feel joy, I feel sadness, I feel peace, but most of all, I feel hope....  hope for peace.

How can my heart be full of joy as I do something that is needed because of heartbreaking circumstances?

How is that possible?

Someone gets married...  the dress they wear on that day forever symbolizes love and hope for the future. 

The bride donates their dress full of love and hope and beauty to me with their prayers of love and peace.   With the symbol of their dress, the bride wants to share their love and hope and prayers with an unknown family somewhere that is suffering.

Angelgownsbyjacki cuts their dress into pieces, albeit beautiful pieces.  As I cut, I pray that while the dress is divided, the bride's love and prayers are multiplied.

I pour my love and hope and prayers for peace into the wedding dress as I work the pieces into Angel Gowns, Caps and Wraps for their jour ney over the Rainbow Bridge. 


A family in another place suffers a heartbreaking loss....  their precious baby became an Angel too soon...  and their grief is overwhelming. 

The grieving family is gifted an AngelGown. 

The Angelgown carries the prayers, the love, and the hope for peace from the donator of the original dress, the creator of the Angelgown, and the countless supporters of AngelGowns.

The Angelbaby's family gives all their love and prayers to the Angelbaby nestled lovingly into the gown.
 
When I ponder this process,  I am speechless.   The amount of prayers for love and peace that are sent with each Angelgown item is impossible for me to fathom. 


I thank God that I can be a part of this process and I pray that the grieving family can feel and know the love, prayers, and hope for peace held by, and placed in, the AngelGown by so many.

I feel so very fortunate, and blessed, to be part of this process.

I pray that those that support Angelgowns know that their support and gifts are so very important to the grieving families of the Angelbabies.
