On this Feast of St. Nicholas, Bishop William Joensen and Jeanne Thill speak with Maria Campbell, founder of Miscarriage Ministry at the Basilica of St. John. Maria shares her deeply personal journey of losing three children—two early miscarriages and one stillbirth—and how the Lord transformed that suffering into a ministry of consolation and dignity for grieving families.

Together, they explore:

The distinctions between miscarriage and stillbirth

The emotional and spiritual impact on both mothers and fathers

Parents’ rights regarding the remains of their child

The importance of compassionate accompaniment

Parish and diocesan initiatives to support grieving families

The hope we find in Christ during seasons of loss

Maria offers practical insight into her ministry’s miscarriage support kits, burial resources, and her growing vision for dedicated “Little Souls” burial areas within the diocese.

This is a tender and hope-filled discussion for anyone seeking support after pregnancy loss or wishing to better minister to those who grieve.
