Welcome!
Pat Elsberry is an author, speaker, blogger, and Certified Grief Educator whose words bring comfort and hope to hurting hearts. After her daughter, Melanie, ran ahead to Heaven, Pat’s life was forever changed. Out of her own grief, she felt a deep calling to walk alongside other parents navigating the unimaginable pain of child loss. Her voice has since become a beacon of compassion and faith, encouraging thousands who are learning to live with loss. Pat’s daily blog, Hope During Loss, reaches readers in more than 30 countries and has become a lifeline of encouragement for a global community. She is the author of Beautifully Broken: Finding Hope During Loss and Comforted by God: 100 Days of Healing and Hope for the Grief Journey. In addition, she is a contributing writer for Wisdom Hunters, a ministry whose daily devotionals impact over 100,000 readers around the world. Beyond her writing, Pat facilitates a monthly in-person support group for women who have experienced child loss, creating safe spaces for sorrow, healing, and hope. Her ministry is rooted in the belief that while grief changes us, God’s love sustains us, and even in brokenness, there can be beauty and purpose.
