In the Summer of 2018, our parish grouping instituted a Bereavement Support Group in the interest of assisting those dealing with the loss of a spouse, family member, or friend. The group exists as a means of support—not counseling− focusing on healing and sharing our story/experience together in a small group settng through 6−7 weekly meetings. [One’s loss does not need to be recent in order to join the group.] The structured sessions, rooted in our Faith, balance opportunities to learn more about grief and sorrow, techniques for moving through grief and sorrow, as well as small group discussion.
Sessions will be held on Mondays beginning August 10 through September 28th from 7 to 8:30 PM in the front room at St. Barbara Hall. There will not be a session on Labor Day.
If you would lihe more information or are interested in joining the group, please contact Becky Lucas at (412) 736−0765—please leave a message.
