The Emmaus Ministry for Grieving Parents serves the spiritual needs of parents whose children of any age have died by any cause. MQOA will host its first retreat, in cooperation with the Boston area Emmaus team, this summer. This one-day retreat gives parents the opportunity to concentrate on their individual spiritual journey through the grief and come to know the promise of Jesus and eternal life. The retreat is open to parents of any age, who lost children at any age and by any means (including abortion, miscarriage, suicide, and overdose). There is a no cost to participants, but participants must register via mqoa.org/emmaus or by leaving a message for Heather at the parish office.
