No matter what the circumstances, grief is a painful, confusing process. A Grief Share group is a safe, welcoming place where people understand the difficult emotions of grief. At this 13-week support group program, participants will discover what to expect in the days ahead and what’s “normal” in grief. Since there are no neat, orderly stages of grief, participants will learn helpful ways of coping with grief, in all its unpredictability—and gain solid support each step of the way.
At each weekly meeting, the group will view a video featuring respected counselors, pastors, and healthcare professionals on grief-related topics, and hear relatable personal stories of grief. After that is a small-group discussion to allow people time to talk, share support, and personally apply what they learned on the video. Everyone will receive a book to take home filled with valuable exercises for navigating their personal grieving process.
Philippi Christian Church in Deltaville will offer the Grief Share program every Saturday at 10 a.m., beginning Feb. 3. It will be led by the Rev. Nell Bagby-Robinson, with assistance from trained lay leaders, all of whom have experienced grief in their own lives, and found their way to joy through faith. Call 804-776-6230 for information, and check out griefshare.org.
Lower United Methodist Church (LUMC) at 120 Lower Church Road, Hartfield, invites everyone to join them for worship this Sunday at 10:30 a.m. Their Lay Leader Susan Thomas will preach.
The “Hearing God” Bible study will meet on Monday at 10:30 a.m. in the LUMC Fellowship Hall.
All are welcome each Wednesday for a time of group prayer beginning at 5 p.m.
