GriefShare

Your Journey from Mourning to Joy

griefshare-01.jpg

After the funeral, when the cards and flowers have stopped coming, most of the people around you return to their normal lives. But your grief continues and you feel alone. Often, friends and family want to help you, but they don't know how.

Where can you find support & encouragement on your grief journey?

GriefShare is a 13-week group led by caring people who want to walk with you on the long path toward healing and hope for the future. Via video segments, discussion, and a workbook you will explore topics related to the grief process with the goal of providing help and encouragement after the death of a spouse, child, family member, or friend.

What to expect

GriefShare is a support group that meets weekly. You'll find it to be a warm, caring environment and will come to see your group as an "oasis" on your journey of grief. You will view an encouraging, information-packed video featuring leading grief recovery experts and discuss the content as a small group. There is a companion workbook with personal activities to reinforce the weekly topics.

When to Begin

You are welcome to begin attending our GriefShare group at any point. Each session is "self-contained," so you do not have to attend in sequence. You will be able to pick up any sessions you missed in our next 13-week cycle.

the next in-person session (Fridays @ 10:30Am) begins SEPTEMBER 13,2024.


What will you learn through GriefShare?

Each week your group will watch a video seminar on DVD. The GriefShare videos cover topics essential to your recovery from the hurt of grief and loss. The videos are produced in a compelling television magazine format and feature interviews with grief recovery experts, mini-dramas, on-location video, and real-life stories of people who have experienced the death of a loved one.
