Ashley Opliger is the founder and executive director of Bridget’s Cradles. After her daughter, Bridget, was stillborn at twenty-four weeks, she left her career as a speech-language pathologist to start the ministry in her daughter’s empty nursery. Under Ashley’s leadership, Bridget’s Cradles now donates thousands of knit and crocheted cradles to over 1,600 hospitals in all fifty states from their headquarters near Wichita, Kansas. Ashley hosts the Cradled in Hope podcast and leads support groups for grieving moms. She is married to Matt, and they have three children: a daughter in Heaven and two sons on earth. She loves Jesus and desires to share the hope of Heaven with families grieving the loss of a baby. Ministry and motherhood keep Ashley very busy, but in her spare time, she enjoys making memories with family and friends, going on long walks outside, lifting weights, and traveling. After her boys go to bed, if she’s not doing the dishes or spending time with Matt, she can be found stargazing in their hot tub, playing her electric drums, journaling, studying the Bible, or reading a Christian nonfiction book.
