Shane Whalen
This Prayer Circle is Dedicated to my son Shane Whalen Who Passed Away On March 15, 1999 at the Age of 24, & All Other Children


Start a prayer circle for bereaved parents who have lost a child.


There are many of us out there who have lost a child, and it is devastating. It changes the outlook on life, plunges you into a depression, and you think that the feelings and thoughts you have nobody else could possibly relate to. I think a prayer circle for bereaved parents would only benefit us and help us on our journey of grief. This Circle is one of Love, where a Grieving Parent can safely come to for Prayers, and to talk about their feelings.

Please God send you comfort, somehow to know that though you miss him, he is in a better place and you will see him again. I pray for you and shed tears for your pain, only faith will get you
through, as our children sometimes ARE OUR LIVES. Please God, let her know somehow that he is with the only one who loves him even more and feels that love in a way he we can't here.

Thank you Salmom for your beautiful and encouraging prayer.
Kimsmom, you know your precious baby is with God, and although you miss her and it hurts, God also shares your pain and will see you through this.
Luv Sandy

You are safe now and no one can hurt you. And also my god daughter Baliegh whom passed away this October, may God bless her family and may they continue to heal.

Please know you ALL are in my prayers. IT is so tough to loose a child, no matter how young or old that child is. I lost my daughter almost 16 years ago and there are days it feels like yesterday! My arms still ache to hold her. I was blessed to have her for 2 precious days and in those 2 days she gave me a lifetime of love! I know she is watching over me and taking care of her brothers and sister that is now here on earth. Keep your faith and GOD will grace you with more LOVE than you can dream of. God Bless YOU ALL! Love, Kimsmom

ON SATURDAY JANUARY 13,2001, JENNIFER KATHERINE FIGUEROA, AGE 18, WENT TO BE WITH GOD. SHE DIED FROM COMPLICATIONS OF A BONE MARROW TRANSPLANT. SHE FOUGHT FOR 4 MONTHS, BUT ULTIMATELY SHE LOST THE BATTLE. SHE WAS A BEAUTIFUL YOUNG LADY WHO LOVED THE LORD. SHE IS MISSED TERRIBLY. I REALLY THOUGHT GOD WAS GOING TO SAVE HER AND SHOW US HIS MIGHTY POWER. I DON'T UNDERSTAND, BUT I KNOW GOD'S WAYS ARE NOT MY WAYS. THANK YOU GOD THAT YOU ARE IN CONTROL. THANK YOU THAT YOUR WAYS ARE PERFECT. HELP US TO ALL LIVE IN THE PROMISE OF YOUR PEACE AND COMFORT. TO ALL WHO HAVE LOST A CHILD, I PRAY FOR THAT CHRIST WOULD DRAW YOU VERY NEAR AS YOU DRAW NEAR TO HIM.

I would like to extend a prayer for all of the parents who have lost a child. My prayers are with two strong parents who recently lost their 4 year old daughter, Erin. Erin means peace and I know she is at peace where she is now. We all love and miss you Erin. I know you are a little angel watching over us each day.

to all the parents who have lost an innocent child, remember they are home with jesus. i can understand the pain and hurt you feel, for i too have lost my son on july 24,2000. his fathered murdered him and tried to say my son jaguar drowned in 6 inches of water in a bathtub. my son was only 5 years old and would of been 6 on august 4,2000. we were already planning his birthday party. the pain really kills us but we know jaguar is in a better place and we will be withhim again. to all parents: have faith in jesus that he will comfort you when you feel the unbarable heart ache of missing your precious child. from, cindy alves - jaguars mom

Cindy, I'm very sorry to hear of the death of your beloved son. As you say, he's in a better place and with Jesus in His arms, as all our children are. When times get rough, just keep praying, Our Heavenly Father will help you through the rough times.

Dear Shaner, I would like to offer my prayers to each person who has posted a prayer in your circle. Children are a blessed gift from God & loosing a child, as we all know, is the most painful thing to have to endure. I never had the chance to meet the 3 i lost, as i miscarried, but I feel God blessed me with 3 more to help fill the void. I pray for each & everyone who has had to deal with such a devasting blow. And Shaner, I would like to thank you for posting a prayer in my fathers prayer circle [Frank Lawler] he is in the middle of his radium therapy, & I'm still praying for healing. God's peace & Love to all, Julie.

I have lost three children, and have had two miscarriages, one only a month ago. I have three other children who I love and of whom I am very proud, but I cannot and will not ever forget my three children who I lost, and the ones who might have been. Please pray for me. I cannot see beyond my saddness right now, but I feel God's comfort, and I so very much, with all my heart, believe in prayer.

I wrote this for my son who died, in 1996...

FOR SAMUEL, GOODBYE

You don't have a fluffy quilt
To cover your little baby head
A blanket of grass wet with dew
covers you instead

You don't have a lullaby
Sung to you softly over 'n over again
But you have the breeze and a chorus of crickets
Blending a sweet refrain

You don't have a cheerful light
Shining you comfort in your room
But the silver stars light your darkness my darling.
And the moon

You don't have these mother's arms
Wrapping around & holding you tight
But you have a mother's eternal love
Holding you close to her day & night.

You don't have a fluffy quilt
You don't have a sweet refrain
You don't have a cheerful light
And you don't have the pain...

Dear Shaner,
To you and to all the parents who have suffered the loss of children: As a mother who has lost three sons, one to disease, two to violence, and two grandchildren to a fire, as well as two premature grandsons who did not make it, I say, God is good! He made this earth for us to enjoy, he made love for us to share. He made life eternal if you want it. I know all I have lost are with Him. I feel it every moment of every day. I know with all my being He cares for me and my family and He gives us the strength and love we need to accept the earthly sadness. I know He cares for each of you and your loved ones and will give each of you the strength and love to go on. The grief we know is for what was and what might have been on this earth, but it is all in God's Heaven now, and will go on eternally, happy and loved. They are with us always, God is with us always. Pray daily for His love, that is the one constant in this world. Our lives here are temporary, we are not guarenteed one moment of earthly existance because of the evils we humans have brought upon this earth, but we are all guarenteed eternal life. I pray we all find the solace we need daily, it is there for us.

BarbLW, your words of comfort and encouragement are very kind. I am truly sorry for your own losses, it must have been very tough to deal with, but with the love that Our Heavenly Father has for us, we will all get through this and emerge with a stronger faith, I know I have, and I pray that the other parents on this Circle have also, because He is always there for us, no matter what. We will always miss our children, always love them, but will see them one day again, this I am certain.

I just registered tonight with beliefnet and wanted to visit your prayer group because I have lost a son born prematurely and I am a casemanager who works often with the dying. The days that I have feel sorry for myself over my own loss grow fewer as I see people such as yourself with such a greater loss. God helped me through my sorrow as I am sure he will help you through yours and all those suffering a similar tradgedy. Tonight I will pray for all of you and your loved ones for you all have brought tears to my eyes and helped me to remember that my own sufferings are far less than most. God Bless.

This is a prayer that goes to Jill Bain and her family, who recently not only lost her son, Nick- aged 19, but husband Steve on a freak boating accident, they were electrocuted. I want to express my deepest sympathies to her and her other daughter Alice.
May God be with you in this hard time for all.

Steve was a wonderful man, so too was Nick.
