GriefShare

A support group for those who are struggling with the loss of a loved one. You are not alone.

It may be hard for you to feel optimistic about the future right now. If you’ve lost a spouse, child, family member, or friend, you’ve probably found there are not many people who understand the deep hurt you feel. This can be a confusing time when you feel isolated and have many questions about things you’ve never faced before.

 

Our GriefShare group meets weekly to help you face these challenges and move toward rebuilding your life.

Each GriefShare session has three distinct elements:

 
 
  • Each week we will watch a video seminar featuring top experts on grief and recovery subjects. These videos are produced in an interesting television magazine format featuring expert interviews, real-life case studies, dramatic reenactments, and on-location video.

  • After viewing the video, we will spend time as a support group, discussing what was presented in that week’s video seminar and what is going on in the group’s lives.

  • During the week we will have the opportunity to use our workbooks for further personal study of the grieving process and to help sort out your emotions through journaling. Our group will spend time discussing questions and comments from the workbook study.
