River Valley Christian Fellowship GriefShare

Thursdays at 6:00pm CT

GriefShare is a safe, welcoming place where people understand the difficult emotions of grief. Over 13 weeks, you’ll find relief and comfort as you learn what to expect in the days ahead and how to navigate your personal grief process. Since there are no neat, orderly stages of grief, you’ll learn helpful ways of coping with grief, in all its unpredictability—and gain solid support each step of the way. Topics include how to manage grief-related emotions such as loneliness, anxiety, sadness, anger, and regret; how to cope with the changes in your life and relationships; how to recognize what’s normal in grief; and what to do if you feel stuck or hopeless. At a weekly GriefShare meeting, you will view a video featuring respected counselors, and healthcare professionals on grief-related topics. There are small-group discussions for sharing and support. You will receive a book to take home with valuable exercises. This group starts August 13th at 6pm and meets on Thursdays for 13 weeks.
