Welcome to The Widows Project!

A seed must fall into the ground and die before it can produce fruit.

If God is love, and I love you and you love me, we can still enjoy Valentine’s Day when we celebrate the love that is in our lives.

With 2025 upon us, we are considering new beginnings and fresh opportunities. When we have lost a loved one, the New Year can be a painful reminder of what—or who—is missing. As Christians, however, we can move forward, even through grief, with hope, healing, and encouragement because of our faith in Jesus Christ. We’d like to walk you through some principles, scriptures, and prayers for moving forward in the New Year without leaving the memory of our loved ones behind:

We’re excited to share what God did on our recent mission trip to Uganda. We just returned, and we’re so grateful for those of you who made it possible for us to go and comfort the widowed.

The holidays are coming, which can mean missing a loved one. Take care of yourself this season.

Come on board to help us if you have a heart for these folks!

Sometimes the loss of a loved one is very sudden and shocking. But other times, we have some warning, and we think we might be somewhat prepared.

How will I face Father’s Day when the father of our family is gone?

“It's constant. I had no idea how hard it would be. The depth of grief is astounding. Sometimes I feel like I can't even catch my breath.”

Therefore, I urge you brothers in view of God's mercy to offer your body as living sacrifices, holy and pleasing to God, which is your spiritual worship. Do not conform any longer to the pattern of this world but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you'll be able to test and approve what is God's will, His good pleasing and perfect will. Romans 12:1 & 2

“The Lord is close to the brokenhearted and saves those who are crushed in spirit.”

Fact: emotions are not facts.

The recently widowed person may feel like they are living in the wilderness and that it is a dry wasteland without their loved one. But God promises that in His mercy, He will create that pathway through the wilderness. And He won't just reroute that river He will create a river in the dry wasteland.

God gave us some amazing assignments and, of course, He has empowered us to reach many of those goals—but we still have more to go!

Here are some tips about what to do or say if you know someone who has lost their spouse.

We are moving full speed ahead with the work of The Widows Project!
