Facilitates Healing
Conversations

We cannot reach someone’s pain but God can. Each month they receive an invitation from the Lord to sit with Him, give Him their deep pain and even deeper questions.

Wanting to care well
but feel you'll say the wrong thing?

Our subscription boxes are designed for seasons of life when words fall short, offering a respectful, non-intrusive way to extend compassion. Knowing that we can’t fix or heal anyone, SWAH takes that weight off of you and puts it on the shoulders of the One who can, Jesus. Each monthly gift has an invitation from the Lord to invite Him into their pain and find peace, comfort, and healing.

 

 

In addition to God’s ability to carry the weight of grief, there is still the human component that cannot be underestimated. In times of loss and uncertainty, let your loved one know that you’re there, remembering their pain without the pressure for them to respond. It’s a simple yet profound way to say, “I care, I remember, and I’m here for you” should you want to talk.

How Our
Monthly Gift Box Works

One of the single most powerful things we can do for the brokenhearted is to let them know they’re not alone. That simple gesture has been known to save lives. Each monthly box centers on a single word theme with a supporting Bible scripture, intentional grief recovery gifts, and an invitation from Jesus to rest in Him. A monthly message that bridges the human connection with the One, Jesus who has the power and authority to not only reach the deep pain but to heal, restore and redeem it all.

Hi, I'm Sherrie

Hi, I’m Sherrie Pilkington, Sherrie Pilk for short. I’m a blogger (ALifeOfThrive.com), speaker, a podcast host (Finding God in Our Pain), and now I’m the Founder of Sealed With a Hug (SWAH).

 

In early 2018, my seemingly healthy husband whom I had been with for a little over 33 years, unexpectedly passed away.

 

My journey through grief and recovery forced me into the darkest of valleys. Yet in that pit of hell, I was given beautiful revelations about the heart of God for the brokenhearted. It forged a deep intimacy with the God of the Holy Bible, a level of intimacy I didn’t even know was possible.

 

 There are so many things I discovered but the one thing that made the biggest difference was to know I was not alone. To know people cared kept me tethered to life around me. To have the presence of God kept me anchored in the emotional, mental, physical and spiritual storm that would not let up.

 

That’s why I created Sealed With a Hug. SWAH is a monthly subscription gift box that enables you to stay even though your life is busy and demanding. It provides a consistent message that you remember someone’s pain and that it matters to you.

 

Be the one who stays when everyone else has left!

Be the one who stays.
