If you have had a loss of a loved one, it may be hard for you to think about hope and the future right now. If you have lost a spouse, child, family member or friend, you may be hurting very deeply at this time.  The feelings of isolation and confusion seem to meet you daily. 

GriefShare groups meet weekly to help people face the challenges of rebuilding their life following the loss of a loved one.  Each GriefShare group has three distinct elements: 

Video seminar with experts

Support group discussion with focus on the topic discussed for the week

Personal study and discussion 

A new GriefShare group will be starting on March 3, at 2 p.m. at Trinity United Methodist Church. The meeting will run until 3:30 p.m. For more information contact Melinda Jackson at 334-745-2632.
