Understanding Your Grief Support Group will begin its 10-week series on Tuesday, September 12, 2023, 7:00-8:30 pm in the Church Library, and will continue on Tuesdays.
“Understanding Your Grief” is based on Dr. Wolfelt’s Ten Touchstones - basic principles to learn and actions to take to help you engage with your grief and create momentum toward healing. If you're grieving a death recently or longer ago, this bestseller book and support group will help guide you as you journey through the wilderness of your unique grief.
No need to pre-register; there is no cost. Sessions are open to the public; attendance at every session is not required. You can join at any time. If this is of interest to you, join us as you can. The church’s phone is 574/533-7845.
