GriefShare
GriefShare is a 13 week seminar and support group program designed to provide help and encouragement to individuals after the death of a loved one and to assist them in walking through this difficult time.
A GriefShare support group is a safe, welcoming place where people understand the difficult emotions of grief. Through this program, participants will discover what to expect in the days ahead and how to navigate their personal grief process. Since there are no neat, orderly stages of grief, participants will learn ways of coping with grief and gain solid support each step of the way.
At each weekly GriefShare session, participants view a 30 minute video featuring respected experts on grief related topics and relatable personal stories from people who have experienced loss. Their insights will help in managing emotions, gaining clarity and finding answers to various questions regarding the grief process. After the video, a small-group discussion is conducted to allow a time of sharing, support and personal application of what was learned from the video. Talking with other people who understand what they are experiencing brings comfort and normalizes the grief experience, and offers a supportive environment to work through their grief. Group participants receive a book to take home filled with valuable exercises for navigating their personal grieving process.
Our GriefShare group is led by caring people who have experienced grief and want to help you through the difficult days ahead. You may wish you could bypass the difficult emotions or push down the pain. Healing from grief and loss, however, requires each individual to go through their specific form of grief and recovery. Grief is a journey that should not be traveled alone. Healing happens in the context of finding others who can help you. We know it hurts, and we want to help you find relief and stability. Our GriefShare group is a safe place to find support.
The program is designed so you can join at any week of the program and gain benefits from participating. If you are interested in joining our program, don’t delay joining simply because the program is currently underway. We welcome individuals at any stage of our 13 week program.
