Grieving in God’s Embrace (formerly  "Life After Loss")


“The Lord is near to the brokenhearted, and saves the crushed in spirit.”
Psalm 34:18
The Spiritual Life Ministry offers Grieving in God’s Embrace approximately once a year. Grieving in God’s Embrace is a six-week faith-based program that provides a safe and supportive place in which individuals can focus on and process some of their grief due to loss.  During these gatherings, participants are encouraged to remember that God is with them as they journey through their grief.  Topics covered include:
  • Introduction and Loss History
  • Normal Grief Process
  • Depression and Anger
  • Guilt and Forgiveness
  • Letting Go and Saying Goodbye
  • Taking Care of Yourself
