Date:  Tuesdays, Sept. 17 – Oct. 22, 2024

Description: Grief is a normal part of life; it is natural; it is necessary. Grief is not just because death has happened. The loss of a job, a move to a new residence, the loss of a friendship – these situation often involve grief. Therefore, there are resources that can allow one to experience “good grief” that provides opportunity for hope and healing.

During this six week class, we will focus on: power of stories and memories, the flow of grief, exploring “Where is God?” in the midst of our grief, preparations for one’s own funeral and worship service. Since grief is a part of being human, this class will have something to offer anyone who is curious about how to navigate this aspect of our life as best we can.

If needed, childcare is available with advance notice.
