I lost a child over a year ago. I still feel shattered and miss my little girl every day! I too felt heartbroken that I had not felt some intuition that would have allowed me to protect her and prevent her loss! I listened to a talk by John Lennox (Catholic) who said: “If you could see what happened immediately after the loss of children, you would stop doubting and fall down on your knees and worship”. I know this is true. God and Jesus Christ are there to welcome our little ones home! That brings me comfort.

"A miracle is not a life without pain. A miracle is learning to deal with the pain and finding the happiness with the pain" Love this

40 years ago, while standing over my son's still open grave, I too heard a divine whisper. 14 years later, in a similar single whispered sentence, I received the message that brought me to complete acceptance of my child's death. May God bless and grant all other grief stricken and bereaved parents the same comfort to help heal their broken hearts, minds and souls, sooner, rather than later.

The part where she said that she saw a vision of Emily and the other kids being hugged by Jesus Christ truly touched me. She may not be on earth anymore, but she and the other kids are in a better place.

These videos are so great and so inspiring I might have to sit here for hours just watching them. God Bless The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints for making these videos. Peter

It changes everything, doesn't it? To know that when our precious ones die, they go home. Home to a heavenly family where they are loved and taken care of perfectly.

I’m sobbing 😭 What beautiful testimonies ❤️ I’m so thankful for a Father in Heaven who loves us so much He sent His Son to die for us, so we may have the chance to receive Eternal Life. I feel so blessed ❤️

I cried when she said that during her prayer she felt content and saw the picture of the little kids being with our Lord and Savior cause that is just so beautiful😭✨✨

As a born again Christian I know I will get to put my arms around my baby that’s with The Lord. I know that our pain and sufferings are miracles in the making.

God bless you and I know you will have your daughter Emilie again. What a wonderful artist she was! I have lost three children and I know the pain you are feeling. I also know that God has helped me through the pain and to find meaning, even joy in suffering. I know someday I shall see my children again, and that all that was lost will be restored. Thank you for sharing your story and your faith in Christ and Heavenly Father, and thank you to the Church for publishing this so that the cruel criticisms of Sandy Hook being a hoax can be put away. Sister Fryer ❤️🌹😇

Seriously, who downvotes a video like this? This is beautiful. We need so much more of messages like this. I don't understand why people would oppose a message of healing, especially in light of so many tragedies in the world.

I almost didn't watch this video, thinking it'd be too much for me to handle. I'm glad I did. May God continue to bless you and your beautiful family.

I've never had a child die, but I lost my sweet husband of 20 years. I know that I'll see him again. God is merciful.

*With God, nothing is impossible. God bless you all* ❤

Jesus is the same yesterday,today and forever...

"where was your God today?" I find these questions interesting from others cause I can feel where he is and know it and it saddens me that others don't want to feel what I feel.

That day was seared into my heart, I sat at my desk at work bawling wondering how anyone in that moment could work, I couldn’t even breathe or move, I felt so much sorrow. I wept and prayed for you and your children, as well as my own. I pray for your joy and peace and glad to see your family love still blooming.

Thank you so much for sharing your story, in it I found answers to my questions. God bless😇😇😇

Good testimony, even lost your beloved little girl God has blessed with children. Here, the important thing is you never lost faith in God. Great, May God bless abundantly to your kids. From Indian Christian

I absolutely love this story. I can’t imagine going through a tragedy like this but it is a story of pure love and our Heavenly Father. Thank you for sharing.

This story reminds me of a statue that stands in the church member’s section of Vienna City Cemetery. It has Christ with a little girl and her parents just getting there to greet them. It seems to say, “She was safe with me the whole time.” What a powerful testimony you both shared, I hope to be that good of a mother to bear that witness dispute suffering.

The Lords protection leaves room for agency. Spiritual protection means that bad things can happen to good people but they can have and find peace and purpose in the tragedy. Loved the quote at the end.

Thank you for being strong for Emilie and for giving us the example to be strong under the most challenging circumstances. We love you. Arlene and Javier from Australia.

I know that I'll see my loved ones again! Death isn't the end, it's the beginning of something greater.

Phenomenal story of love and gratitude for our many blessings. I cried when I watched this. I have 3 little ones, and I can't imagine losing one. These parents are great examples of love and faith in our Fathers plan.

"God is not in the event. He is in the response to the event" this quote has comforted me many times in my life.

Someone actually sent you that message? So sad. And so short-sighted. Death is not the worst thing that can happen to us here on earth, and it's tragic that so many lack that knowledge.

Each day is a MIRACLE!! Amen

Precious little Emily is guaranteed Eternal Life ! Wonderful assurance

This video is such a gem. Such a sweet forever family 💖

RIP ANGEL EMILY THIS WAS VERY EMOTIONAL THANKS FOR STRENGTHENING MY TESTIMONY

Beautiful miracle amongst trail etc. Pure love of christ cast away all fear

Bless you for opening up and sharing. No matter how strong our faith, this hurts. The near-immediate response to the father's prayer was "I know". The Lord knows because He has felt everything we can feel. That's how He can comfort us, no matter what. Bless you.

I cried with you - felt some of your joy, then some of your pain. And then your glimmer of hope strengthened me. Thank you so much ... for sharing.

I'm grateful that Jesus is good. 💖

Thank you so very much!!! This was so beautiful!!!! Thank you to this family who shared their experience with Sandy Hook elementary and the death of their daughter, Emilee! And all about their wonderful family with three beautiful blonde girls!! Thank you for sharing also about your testimonies and your faith!!! I will say a prayer for you! Love, Sis. Gay Michaelis

Life is so so precious

From one parent to another, thank you for sharing the divine within the unfathomable.

Thank you for sharing! You’ve given me so much hope that despite what happens, we can find hope and joy through Jesus Christ.

some people in school have said or taled about with me when they talk about an accsident that maybe have happend that a baby or kid died :c one time in school but then i said . '' i know that every child that passes away is going to enter the kingdom in heaven and be living with jesus christ safe with their savior .

I am not a strong enough person to handle this type of issue. I will never forget you and your strength for my whole life.

Wow, that is just the ultimate test of your faith, losing your child. It really makes you devine what you are made of. God bless this family.

What strong examples of faith and hope in the face of great tragedy. I have five children of my own and the thought of losing one of them, for whatever reason, is terrifying. I thought I was a tough guy but this whole video had me bawling like a baby. Had to tell my wife (who was on the other side of the room reading) that my allergies were acting up as I kept sniffling and blowing my nose.

Emilie Alice Parker, you will never be forgotten. Thank you to the Parkers, for sharing Emilie's story, for sharing your faith and for doing the work you do with Emilie's fund and Safe and Sound schools.

Miracles do happen. I had a daughter with a traumatic incident; yet I totally knew. God told me. He's since told me many other things that are nothing short of many silent miracles.

I love this. What inspired and amazing parents ❤ "A miracle is not a life without pain, the miracle is learning to deal with the pain and finding the happiness with the pain" ❤

Praying 🙏 for all the families

This really touched me and made me cry and feel the Spirit so much. Thank you.

This is truly amazing...the journey, the message and this beautiful family. Thank you for sharing this with the world.

This life will pass us by so fast and will be reunited with our loved ones. As heart wrenching as it is, God will carry us through. Peace be forever with your family. ❤

I feel for this family... I did not lose a child in a mass shooting, but I was ON the campus when a mass shooting took place. We were in lockdown. Trapped, like rats. All I could think about was daughter, who was 2 at the time, and would I ever see her again. It was gut wrenching. When we were finally allowed to leave after lockdown, I drove to where she was as quickly as I could and ran to her and just hugged her to me and cried and cried and cried. I can't imagine being in this situation at Sandy Hook. I don't know that I could go on living if she were taken from me like that. My one source of comfort during the shooting was..."I might die, but at least my little girl will live." Prayers to this couple and all the parents who have lost a child to this madness.

It is such a sad thing that happened but God was there waiting with open arms for those precious little angels that were coming back to him

I still remember the day this tragedy happened I was sitting at the Parent pick up line at school in my car listening to the breaking news report about Sandy Hook elementary. It hit so close to my heart as I was picking up my two little girls that were 5 and 6 years old (same age as most of the victims). I remember hugging them so tight that night! And even sleeping in their bedroom because I was so heartbroken about those families that didn't get to pick up their little ones that day. I remember we prayed for those families that night. I enjoyed this video thank you for sharing your story!

Wow I'm grateful for the Gospel of Jesus Christ and our Father's plan. I'm grateful for these parents faith, love and their testimony I felt that I can't imagine how it feels to lose a child but y'all held on staying solid trust in the Lord's plan amazing. Love to y'all and thank you for your story and testimony God bless

My trials lead me to my Father in Heaven. My problems redirected me to think of my Saviour, Jesus Christ. I find comfort listening to this message. I don't know the pain of losing a child. But, I feel the Spirit as I listen to your testimonies about the Plan of Salvation.

Thank-you so much for sharing this story. I am so sorry for your pain and the magnitude of your loss, yet grateful to the Savior for his omniscient love, comfort, and power. I am also so grateful that there are people like you who demonstrate faith to carry on despite the difficulty journey that we are sometimes called to pass through. Miracles are real.

Little Angel ❤️ rest in peace. Jesus loves You.

Doctrine and Covenants 18:10 - "Remember the worth of souls is great in the sight of God;"

I can't stop watching these videos! I have almost no more things to say!

Thank you for this story, and testimony of God and Jesus Christ. I have been struggling with my own self-worth for years, (I still do) but I try taking it one day at a time knowing that God is willing to work with me with my imperfections, and transgressions. God wants complete joy and happiness for all his children, and is willing to work hard with them to get it!

Thanks for sharing your beautiful story. She’s in a better place❤️

She is definitely having her happily ever after, She is giving everyone hugs. 😢😍

I definitely needed to hear this, especially the part where the Father received that small glimmer of hope. And was able to push forward through that tragic event. Heavenly Father loves us and gives us this glimmer of hope to remind us of the greater plan he has for us. May you all be blessed for sharing this powerful story.

Wow. Thank you, thank you for sharing your testimony and experience, and about the joy that is your Emilie. It has brought me so much light today. May our Heavenly Father give you peace every day.

What a cruel thing to say, “Where was your God in that moment?” What a cruel person who said that, God had already told us “thou shalt not kill”, so when are you and society going to respect and obey this? God won’t force anyone to do what is right, that’s not his job. He is waiting to see if you have the brains, empathy, and courage to do right and witness the consequences when people chose not to obey “thou shalt not kill”. Have we learnt yet? Or will we still blame God for peoples bad choices?

Wow what a inspiring story... praise sweet Lord Jesus...right now my mother in hospital fighting to stay alive... Jesus I thank you for this amazing story & video! Happy all those in Paradise with our blessed almighty God & Lord Jesus. . Amen! 🙏

Such a tragedy to live through but what a beautiful hopeful video ! I'm so grateful for we all have a father to go home to.

Like many others, that heartbreaking day has had a lasting impact on me. I'm so grateful for this message from your family, I didn't realize how much I needed to hear it as part of my own healing. Thank you for sharing something so deeply personal and precious.

Praise the Lord Jesus Christ! Amen

When the mother referred to her relationship with the Holy Ghost as a “partnership,” that’s a worthy goal. As a mom, I’m going to work towards that until I achieve it and I’m in constant communication with the Spirit so I can best raise and nurture my girls. Thank you for this beautiful message

Amazing! Thank you for sharing this experience and how to recognize the miracles that come even through tragic events. Their testimony will bring comfort to many people around the world!

It made me think of Alma 14:9-11 in the Book of Mormon when Alma and Almulek are witnessing the martyrdom of believers by fire and desperately want to intervene but are constrained by the spirit. I can't imagine how absolutely soul-wrenching it must be to go through something like this and feel powerless to act. Sandy Hook somewhat mirrors the pain and agony Alma and Amulek must have experienced, these faithful parents likely more so considering this evil act took the life of their own child. Thank you for sharing your story with us and allowing us to see such events through a Christlike lens.

I wish I could say something to comfort the loss of these people and there precious daughter Emily. I watch videos of people seeing God or Jesus. And people seeing Heaven. Heaven sure does sound beautiful and it sounds like a amazing place. When people see it they describe the colors are so bright and beautiful there’s colors and smells in heaven that’s Amazing and when most people see it they don’t want to come back. When it’s described like that. It makes me not afraid to die. It’s like I’m a little child waiting for Christmas.

It takes a lot for me to cry. I cried through this whole video. Such a powerful message! My prayers go out to all those suffering❤❤❤

The day this happened, I was in Utah, teaching my Jr High Math classes. It was lunch time and I had hurriedly looked at my phone, to read the news of the day. I saw what transpired in Sandy Hook and my heart just broke for all the dear families who were affected by such extreme loss and heartache that day. It made me weep, I felt such sadness. I had an extra moment, so I hurried down to the office to run some papers off. One of the little brothers of one of my 7th grade students (I had never met this little boy, I overheard his mother tell him I was his older brother's math teacher.) ran up to me and gave me a great big hug. This made my weeping quickly turn to smiles and laughter. We began talking and he wanted me to guess how old he was. I said 4? He shook his head no. His mom was pointing her finger up, indicating he was older. I said, "Hmm. Are you 97?" His mom laughed, he grinned and said no. I then asked, "Are you 5?" And he broke into a huge smile. "Uh huh, it's my birthday today!" We talked for a few more minutes. He then had to leave so we said our goodbyes. I smiled to myself as he and his mama left. Receiving his hug had been so good- hugs from little people are THE best. I then walked into the faculty work room. I was alone and began thinking again about Sandy Hook and I began weeping again- for all the families who would not get to hug their little ones again. This video was amazing. To hear about the messages from heaven that each parent received together, yet separately in the car, infused my soul with light, hope, power, and happiness. I am so grateful to know, like we do know, that we will see our beloved departed again because of the Savior's great love for us. We are so blessed to know this. I am so thankful for this family, for all they have shared, for their love of our Savior and the faith which they put in Him. They are true disciples. I love them and their family. I am so sorry for their loss. I am so grateful for their faith and for their family's happiness. And, mostly, I am grateful for One more who makes their faith both possible and complete. Thank you, Savior.

Did this little girl have to look incredibly like my daughter..ugh i felt their pain. I can not imagine!

I cried through this story. What loving people you are. You are so strong. Thank you for sharing your innermost feelings. Bless you and your family.

Praise the Lord！

Thank you for sharing about God's love and care. You turned this heart wrenching experience into a time of reflection and hope. God bless.

You guys have a lot of faith and love and it’s really inspiring ❤️❤️

The saviour Jesus Christ can help you no matter the situation, dont be afraid to ask for help, trust in him like he trusts in you.

RIP Emily and all the other children and teachers that passed away in that shooting.. fly high angels 👼🏻💖😭✨

I love this family ❤❤ God bless all of you

May God bless you all

The church teaches that families are forever, you live that doctrine. thanks for telling others.

I accidentally tapped on the video after our churches General conference. I am in tears. Emily is with our Heavenly Father. I known this without a doubt. She was so obviously a very very special spirit.Thank you for sharing your testimony. It will help me through the darkness I am struggling with. Thank you so very much. Love and prayers to your family. She will be waiting to be reunited with you all one day. 💕

You are so right. I have lost someone very close and even though it was and is very sad , a true miracle has come through the this. 🙏🏻

I'm so sorry!!!! My mom lost a child. I was still in heaven when she died, her name was McLain. I couldn't imagine the pain your going through. But what would we do without those faithful mom's in the world who know there is more than just life on Earth. And know that each and every one of us are loved, by our savior. And that every trial we go through, Jesus Christ is always there. Even if we don't know it. Thank you so much for sharing your story with us. ❤️❤️❤️😘😘😇😇

Heartbreaking 🥀💔

When your with Jesus nothing could hurt you amen. God bless you ❤

I loves God's wonderful plan of salvation, and exaltation! We can be with our loved ones forever, if we show great love for Heavenly Father and each other. God bless everyone! You are in my prayers.

This Couple is amazing!!! I feel blessed to hear their story and witnessing their faith. My hope is that they continue to heal, love one another and experience much happiness.

Lord Jesus I love you and I thank you for loving me. Watch over my children and that the children around the whole world, keep them safe from harm and embrace them with the peace and joy of the Holy Spirit Amen

Loved that part... "We don't have to over-complicate it." ❤

Faith in God and his son Jesus Christ makes it all worth while, They love us/ the plan of salvation makes eternal families possible. Bless you all.

I'm so sorry for your loss, you both are such strong examples of strength and faith. Thankyou for sharing your story. Take care and God bless

♥♥ Irrespective of age, we mourn for those loved and lost. Mourning is one of the deepest expressions of pure love. It is a natural response in complete accord with divine commandment: “Thou shalt live together in love, insomuch that thou shalt weep for the loss of them that die.” (D&C 42:45.) Moreover, we can’t fully appreciate joyful reunions later without tearful separations now. The only way to take sorrow out of death is to take love out of life. May Adonai bless and keep you & your family. In the name of Jesus Christ, Amen

It is so great to hear your story and allow it to lift others. God bless.

We people of Jisus we living together all regionals my Father God Jesus Christ

What an amazing testimony. Thank you for this.
