BEREAVEMENT SUPPORT
Bereavement Ministry is a ministry that is supportive in the grief healing process by providing a caring and safe environment for individuals to express their grief.  By using the scripture based Grief Share 13 Week Program participants are able to express their feelings and share challenges they are facing along with the victories they have achieved.  Our intention as a support team is to encourage participants in the knowledge that they are not alone emphasizing God never leaves them in their healing process.  Bereavement meets on Monday evenings at 6:30PM to 8:00PM in Classroom 9 at the Education Center.  (For more information contact Lisa Potter)
