Welcome to GriefShare!
Many churches and organizations do a wonderful job caring for grieving people in the days immediately surrounding a death and funeral. Meals are provided, a service is conducted, cards and flowers are sent, but then people return to their daily routines. Unless you have suffered the loss of someone close to you, it can be hard to understand the deep, prolonged impact caused by the loss of a spouse, child, family member or close friend. Grief is difficult for everyone impacted by death.
That’s where Christ in GriefShare makes the difference, helping grieving people within a group setting to find hope, courage and healing in their growing relationship with our Savior. Through Bible based weekly video presentations and discussions, a workbook with daily encouraging exercises and surrounded by others who understand, true healing in Christ can occur.
GriefShare is a 13-week cycle, within a group that remains open, much like an Emergency Room. When a person experiences the loss of a loved one, that person needs ongoing help and support. The weekly sessions are self-contained, meaning that someone is welcome to join the group at any time during the 13-week cycle.
Again, welcome to GriefShare. We understand because we've been where you are... please join us as we walk with you on your journey from mourning to joy!
