Meeting room

Parish Center Meeting Room, 2427 Perkiomen Ave. Walk down the drive connecting the office/rectory to the chapel and enter the very first grey metal door on Grant St. at the back of the building. It is right next to the 3 garage doors used by the priests who live in the building. The door has a keypad but it will be open the night of our seminars. We will also have a second church meeting at a different location please call 610 370-1174 to register.

Please join others who are both missing and honoring loved ones, knowing that death ends a life . . . not a relationship. We provide support to people from our church and the community; you do not need to be a church member to attend. We provide caring presence, strength, wisdom, and hope. Each seminar covers a different aspect of the life that follows loss, so you may join us at any time even though you didn't attend any of the previous sessions.

*This class meets year-round on Monday night and gets together for some "special weekend workshops." Registration is required and details of that meeting will be given by registering at judyacameron@comcast.net
**We have a follow-up group for those who attended the Griefshare classes and want to continue being part of a group with others who have done the same.
***When you register with griefshare.org you will see a pop-up that guides you on how to purchase the requisite workbook. If you already have the workbook, register by calling 610-370-1174 or emailing judyacameron@comcast.net and leave your contact information.
God Bless You
