Coping with Grief
Through the HolidaysNovember 8
Holidays, anniversaries and holy days are times to gather with family & friends. When you have suffered the loss of a loved one, the holidays can be filled with sorrow and grief. You may feel as though everyone is joyful except you! Grief can be especially raw during these times.
Join the Grief Support Ministry for the holiday session:
Tuesday, November 8 at 6:00 pm
Ave Maria CenterWe will feature video interviews with specialists in grief counseling who will offer tools/suggestions in dealing with expectations of family and friends during these most difficult times. We will share experiences and ideas that help during the first year, as well as subsequent years, following the death of a loved one. All are welcome to bring a friend or refer a relative, friend or co-worker who might be experiencing the pain of grief. This session is free and is open to everyone, Catholic or non-Catholic. The session will be held at St. Laurence - Ave Maria Center.

What people say.........
I came to this grief support group two years ago after my husband's death. It has allowed me to actually cry! In being able to talk and grieve for him I awoke to begin to live again and to honor him. Now I can live a balanced life. CF
Our hero(Dad/ Grandpa) and leader of our family passed away some monthes ago. This is a place where we can talk about him and honor him. The videos are helpful and the leaders are thoughtful. LSM
Grief took me by surprise after my husband died. I found myself unable to communicate with the people around me. It was not until I came to the Grief Support Group that I felt I was able to talk to people without feeling that I needed a translator. People that come to the group understand each other as we all are feeling the loss of our loved ones. I feel very grateful to have become a part of the group. Thank You! BG
