Grief Share

This ministry is designed to assist anyone at any stage of bereavement to begin the healing process. Hearing the stories of others, helps you to realize you are not alone in your grief. If and when you choose to share your experiences, they might be helpful to someone else. No one is forced to talk if you are not ready or comfortable doing so. The video presentations have been developed professionally sharing the personal, pastoral and professional experience’s of many in this field. The facilitators have themselves been through many different bereavement losses such as spouse, child, suicide, parents, grandparents etc.
