GRIEF SUPPORT

SHARING THE JOURNEY

“Grief Shared is Grief Diminished”

The Bereavement Ministry of St. John Bosco church will provide the fall bereavement support group sessions for those who have lost a loved one recently or are having difficulty in their grief. These sessions will provide insight into their grief following a death. We will be reflecting on:

• Understanding common grief reactions;

• Coping strategies;

• Self-care throughout the grief process and beyond; and

• Uniqueness of your grief experience.

The overall goal of the support group is to provide insight into one’s grief and to help them to move toward a resolution of their grief. It is designed to be flexible. When the worst has happened and everything changes, get the support that you need to remember with more love than pain.
