09/07/23 • 30 min
Ashley developed complications in her second trimester of pregnancy. As her mother prepared to visit her in the hospital, she was led by the Holy Spirit to crochet a small cradle (hoping it would not be needed). Little did she know how God was going to use this gift to inspire comfort and healing not just for Ashley, but for thousands of bereaved parents in fifty states. In this episode Ashley shares:
The excitement of being pregnant with Bridget, her first child
Experiencing the heartache of grief and loss and choosing to trust God
The practical and emotional comfort of a small but powerful divine gift
Feeling the presence of Jesus during loss
Being led to an unexpected ministry and the impact it would have for thousands around the country
Upcoming events and how to get involved, online support groups
Speaking at the upcoming Christian Spark Media conference
"The cradle is really a 24 hour comfort, but the Gospel is eternal. We really felt the peace of God, knowing that Bridget was in heaven, that we were going to get to see her again. Death was separating us for now, but it is just a temporary separation. We choose to rely on our faith to move forward in our grief and know that we get to see her again." -Ashley Opliger, Bridget's Cradles
“Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of mercies and God of all comfort, who comforts us in all our affliction, so that we may be able to comfort those who are in any affliction, with the comfort with which we ourselves are comforted by God.” 2 Corinthians 1:3-4 How to contact Ashley:
