GriefShare is a special weekly seminar and support group designed to help you rebuild your life after losing a spouse, child, family member or friend. The weekly sessions are built around three components: video seminar, small group discussion, and workbook ( the workbook cost is $20.00)
Our group at Gainesville Baptist is led by caring people who have experienced grief and want to help you through the difficult days ahead. There will be a total of 15 sessions. We will begin with an Orientation/Registration/Get acquainted session and end with a celebration. Throughout our 15 sessions, we will break for Easter Sunday,
