"To give unto them beauty for ashes, the oil of joy for mourning, the garment of praise for the spirit of heaviness; that they might be called trees of righteousness, the planting of the LORD, that he might be glorified." - Isaiah 61:3
WELCOME TO Perfect Joy Ministries!
- Providing a resource of hope and joy for grieving parents -
Our Mission Statement: Desiring to reach out in love to grieving parents of childloss in tangible ways, and share everlasting joy in the midst of heartbreak.
Perfect Joy Ministries was founded in memory of four precious "heavenly" children, Blessing (July 2009), Brooks Frieden (November 2009), Bliss Grace (September 2011), and Bethesda Faith (September 2012). Seeking to bring awareness to the "silent subject" of childloss - specifically miscarriage and stillbirth, to bring legitimacy to grief and pain, and to encourage parents to find a path to joy and a life full of counting the blessings of being a parent to an "angel baby."
Perfect Joy Ministries offers online Bible studies, a private support group, mentoring programs, and also provides FREE "joy bundles" to parents of childloss. (whether you lost a child recently or many years ago) These bundles include many small tokens of love and rememberance to provide tangibility to the short, yet very significant, life of a little one - a sort of "hug" from us to them. (You may find a list of these items, as well as photos, on our "Resources Photo Gallery" page, as well as on the blogsite.) We also provide bundles and phone support for patients at local OBGYN offices and the hospital's labor and delivery wing.
Please, contact us to request a FREE "joy bundle" in memory of your child, lost through miscarriage, stillbirth, or early infant loss. You may also request an author-signed copy of "Joy Comes with the Mourning" for a small fee. Visit our "Resources Photo Gallery" or the blogsite to place an order.
The worse thing to ever happen to a mother is to lose her child. The worse thing to ever happen to a grieving mother is to feel that her child will be forgotten.

Online Bible Study
and private support group
“Infertility,” “miscarriage,” “ectopic pregnancy,” “stillbirth,” “Infant death”… To someone who has never experienced any of these devastating situations, these may simply be sad words; However, to someone who has been through the tumultuous circumstances surrounding one or more of these words, just reading them on this page may bring pain, guilt, anger, frustration, discouragement, depression, and many unanswered questions. These are lonely and unaddressed areas in our society and in even in our churches today.
Whether you have experienced this grief within the past year or over 50 years ago, we would love to join you on a journey to everlasting joy and peace, found only in Jesus Christ. The Bible holds the living water that can soothe our thirsting souls and meet our deepest needs. Join and be encouraged, as we share our hearts, seek the answers to our questions, and find comfort in absolute truth that is central for true healing.
We will be sharing devotionals, relevant information on topics of interest, open discussions, and even a Bible study with mentoring and prayer partner opportunities.
“And you will know the truth,
and the truth will set you free.”
John 8:32 (ESV)
