GRIEFSHARE

The death of a loved one brings a unique kind of pain. The purpose of our GriefShare ministry is to provide guidance and support in a small group community of others who have also experienced the pain of bereavement. This group is led by caring facilitators who have experienced grief and want to help you through the difficult days ahead. GriefShare is faith-based and scripturally supported, offering insights and tools for navigating the journey of loss after the death of a loved one. Discover what to expect in the days ahead and what is "normal" in grief.
