a little along with Congress and Davidson. That's okay. We'll
still get the information in from Donna Murphy. She's with
Heaven's Game. I've been saying gate all morning, and Don
I apologize to that. We'll get the proper information out
right now Heaven's Gain Ministries, which you can find online
at Heavensgain dot org. Donna, Welcome to the F five

(01:10):
Carscy Morning Show. What is Heaven's Gain and what is
the purpose that you serve there?

Speaker 3 (01:18):
So in Heaven's Gain Ministries, our mission is to provide
for the physical, emotional and spiritual needs of families experiencing
pregnancy loss before, during, and after the actual delivery of
their baby. And it's really important because so many people
when they find out they've lost the baby, they don't
get the preparation they need for whether it's going to

(01:39):
be a miscarriage at home or a late miscarriage, is
still worth in the hospital, and so this is one
of the essential.

Speaker 1 (01:46):
Things that we do.

Speaker 3 (01:48):
We also provide caskets and earns so that these babies
can be buried properly, so moms don't feel like they
need to leave the baby at the hospital to be
placed in medical waste or flush their baby. They can
actually bury their child, and they can also get healing
because we have free support services afterward.

Speaker 1 (02:06):
How did you get involved with this ministry, Donna.

Speaker 3 (02:10):
Well, my husband and I we've lost three children ourselves,
one in the first trimester, two in the second, and
even for our eight inch long baby, we went to
several funeral homes and to some cemeteries and said, hey,
we need a casket for our baby, and no one
would provide it. And so we thought there really needs
to be something done for this. And after inspired by God,

(02:34):
we studied how to make caskets for little babies that
are you know, smaller and you know, to take the
adult sides kind of down. And we started two thousand
and eight and we serve over two thousand families every year.

Speaker 1 (02:48):
Now, oh my word, two thousand. Well, let's I'll pause.
We'll bring you back. We'll have a little more, a
few more details on this. It's such an important service.
I'm surprised there wasn't anything available when you started it,
but thank God you got the calling to help people
out in their obvious time of need. We'll talk with
Don a little bit more again. Heaven's gain dot org
where you get all the information. We'll get more information
from Donna. Just a minute. I want to mention fast

(03:10):
and Proroofing. My dear friends at fast and Pro I
love that they pride themselves on their honesty, which is
a short supply commodity in the roofing business. So many
unscrupulous roofers out there, and I know there are other
roofers that are not unscrupulous, but you've got a real
problem on your hands if you're trying to figure out
the scrupulous from the unscrupulous. So don't worry about that.
Just call my friends at Fasten Pro Roofing. Aplus with

(03:32):
a better business Burea have been locally owned and operated
by Ray and Amanda since nineteen ninety nine. Of course, Eric,
my daughter Sciance, is one of their inspectors, and so
he'll give you a free roof inspection and a free quote.
A quote comes if you need work, it's right. They're
not going to tell you need work if you don't
need it, so you get that honest assessment. Then when
it comes to the work that they do, oh my word.
That's why I always recommend check out the work on

(03:53):
fast and Pro Roofing's website Fastnfastenproroofing dot com. The amazing
custom copper work, the siding work they do is just beautiful.
I know that because I did. They had it done
for me, had my roof replaced. I got beautiful fifty
year shingles, and they'll do an automatic upgrade to the
certainty Landmark pro fifty year shingles. You don't have to
make the choice between a twenty five year or a

(04:13):
fifty year. You get the long heavy duty one right there.
And they do metal work. They do custom I mentioned
the copple work, but they do gutters and gutter guards
and box gutters, literally everything including exterior projects like the
siding and railings. So check them out again online fastenproroofing
dot com. Give them my regards when you call to
schedule the free roof inspection. Five to one three seven

bit coming out of Lockland. Northbound seventy five heavier through
the cut. South two seventy five slows approaching the Carroll

(05:21):
Cropper Bridge. There's an injury accident on Hamilton Leaves outside
of ross At. Smith wrote, shotting from a fifty five
KRC the talk station.

Speaker 1 (05:31):
To shout seven forty here fifty five KR city talk station,
Happy Friday to you. Although tempered by the subject matter,
this is an important mission that my guest today, Donna
Murphy's doing with Heaven's Gain Ministries online at heavensgain dot org,
providing uh well emotional and spiritual needs of families experiencing
pregnancy loss, before, during an after delivery of their baby.

(05:52):
And I was really shocked by the numbers, Donna, that
you've helped two thousand. Is this maybe more common than
my listening audience might appreciate.

Speaker 3 (06:03):
Absolutely. There's over one million miscarriages every year in the
United States alone. In the first trimester and in the
second trimester, you know, when you think you've kind of
made it at our home free, one in thirty three
of those babies will pass. And then the third trimester,
one in one hundred and sixty either die as stillbirth

(06:25):
or die as a premie. So it's a lot more
babies than people realize. And our society says, you know,
don't talk about it, shove it under the rug. But
we feel like it's really important that these families get
the help that they need by getting the support services afterward,
but also getting the preparation for when they go into
the hospital, because all they usually tell you is be

(06:46):
at the hospital at this time, but nobody says, hey,
someone's going to greet you at the front door and
say hi, why are you here, and to explain why
you're there. It starts off the whole thing terrible as
it is, so, and then you know, you go to
the register desk going to ask do you need a pediatrician? Oh,
my gosh, don't ask me that, And then you know,
you go upstairs and so We're going to prepare them

(07:08):
so they have something to hold up, so they don't
have or have to have to answer that question, so
that they know what's going to happen in labor and delivery,
you know, have an idea, and so that that short
time that they have with their child, they could treasure
that time, maybe bathe their child, or address their child,
get some pictures, get some footprints, and so we'll walk
with that family through that process, give them a little

(07:31):
winged bear that they can keep, because that little bit
of time is the only little bit of time that
they'll have with that child, and they can treasure that time,
and then they can get on their healing journey so
much earlier because they don't have all those additional traumas.

Speaker 1 (07:45):
Yeah, and just the cold nature in reality, if the
service was not available in that just terrible time of
you know, psychological need and need for information just this.
You mentioned the idea of flushing a baby. I just
I don't know. I'm struggling with that emotionally because it
just seems so horrific that someone would have to make

(08:06):
that choice. And Donna, do you know, have you followed
the numbers and the trends are the numbers of miscarriages
on the rise? Have you noticed a trend that the
numbers are maybe getting bigger over time?

Speaker 3 (08:22):
Actually, I have not seen any exact studies, but I
have talked to nurses who work in the ob units
and they have said that they have seen that there
has been an increase and that since COVID, people who
catch COVID in the first trimester are having placentas that

(08:44):
don't look normal a lot of times, and so I
think that might be the reason. But that is all
just guessing that I have not seen any medical studies
on it.

Speaker 1 (08:54):
Well, Donald, if you have any interest whatsoever. I talked
with the gentleman by the name of doctor James Thorpe.
He was in obgen for thirty forty years and he
noticed that the COVID nineteen vaccine vaccinated women were having
a lot more miscarriages and he studied all this. He's
done research on it, published many papers on this topic
and thinks that the vaccine itself is what's causing the

(09:16):
problem and also rendering women incapable of even becoming pregnant.
So there may be a core That's why I asked
you the question, because there may be a corollary there.
So if there's a podcast, there's numbers.

Speaker 3 (09:26):
Sorry, so there's numbers that gave you maybe low then yes,
that's new information since COVID.

Speaker 1 (09:31):
Yeah, I suspect they are. The name of the book
is Sacrificed. How the deadliest vaccine in history, in history
targeted the most vulnerable and of course the most vulnerable
of the people that we're talking about right now, pregnant women.
So you you do provide caskets and earns as well
as support services. Does this come at a cost or
are you? Are you a donation based ministry? How does

(09:54):
it work?

Speaker 3 (09:56):
So we are at five o' one C three. We
do accept but we only have eight part time missionary workers.
The other people that do all this are about seventy volunteers,
including myself, and so we can keep the cost of
the caskets and turns really low, and all of the

(10:16):
support services are absolutely free, and we go out if
somebody doesn't come to us after the doctor's office, we
actually go out to the hospital and we'll prepare that
family for the birth of their child. So we have
go bags that we have trained advocates for parents of
perinatal loss that will grab one of our go bags
and go out to a hospital and meet a family.
So it's just a labor of love by a lot

(10:40):
of people who have gone through this or family members
have gone through this, and so they have been very
much trained over months to be able to prepare, to
be able to prepare families for the loss of their child,
or to give the support services that these families need afterwards.
You know, there are other places in the nation that
have afterwards support, but we tend to be the organization

(11:04):
to do the preparation beforehand.

Speaker 1 (11:06):
Understood and in so far as the manufacturer of the caskets,
is that something your volunteers do.

Speaker 3 (11:13):
Actually, our taskets are made by the Amish and Northern
Ohio the wood part of them, and then our volunteers
or missionary workers will do the interiors of the caskets.
So the wood part is done up in Ohio. So
that's why we have to charge, because almiss do charge
for their caskets though they do a beautiful.

Speaker 1 (11:31):
Job, and I'd imagine they certainly do. And finally, in
so far maybe one of my listeners is out there
going boy, I'd love to help that help with that.
We've been through that ourselves, and I understand the pain
and the emotional trauma that people go through this are
struggling with. That sounds like a ministry I want to
get involved with. You need additional help and support from
folks who might want to volunteer.

Speaker 3 (11:53):
Absolutely, we always need more volunteers and in many different
areas you know you could be into. You can help paint,
you can do sewing, you and do it. You could
help with so many different areas. We need help all
over the place. But say you don't have any of
those skills or any skills that we need, you can

(12:14):
attend our dance. We have a dance coming up on
February fourteenth at receptions Erlanger. It's a good time. Doors
open at five thirty, six thirty, there's dinner, seven thirty
is our program, and eight thirty to eleven is dancing.
So if anybody's interested in there's things, they can find
that information on our website at Heavensgame dot org.

Speaker 1 (12:34):
Well, you anticipated the last question. That was the Valentine's
Dinner slash dance fundraiser. And for folks, if you want
to help out the ministry, maybe you can't volunteer, but
there's a little donate button right there at the top
of the website heavensgain dot org. Obviously a very important
work that you're doing, Donna, and I can't thank you
enough for doing it. It's just heartbreaking when I imagine that.

(12:54):
I both both of our children were born at eight months, Donna,
and you know you're just just sitting on the edge
of your seat wait for the day. And both of
them were very healthy when they came out. They gets
we're done. They we want to hit the ground running,
but they have that taken away from you after that
much time. I just I cannot imagine the heartbreak. So
thank you for the work that you're doing each and
every day, Donna Murphy, heavensgain dot org. If you get

(13:17):
any updates or something's going on with the ministry, you
know you can always give Joe a call. We'll get
you back on the show.
