Grief Share is a Christ-centered, biblically based support group for persons who are suffering the loss of a loved one through death. The program consists of three key elements to help participants heal from their loss: a video seminar, group discussions, and a personal workbook. The Grief Share videos include experts, ministers, and Christian counselors as they discuss grief and the recovery process. There are also testimonies from people who share their stories of what has helped them deal with the pain of losing a loved one. The seminar lasts for 13 weeks and participants can join at any time during the 13 weeks since the lessons and videos are not in succession. Pray for God to use this highly effective program to reach members of our church and community.
