Join Us for GriefShare
No matter what the circumstances, grief is a painful, confusing process. A GriefShare group is a safe, welcoming place where people understand the difficult emotions of grief. At this 13-week support group program, you’ll discover what to expect in the days ahead and what’s “normal” in grief.
Since there are no neat, orderly stages of grief, you’ll learn helpful ways of coping with grief, in all its unpredictability—and gain solid support each step of the way. At each weekly meeting, you will view a video featuring respected counselors, pastors, and healthcare professionals on grief-related topics, plus you’ll hear relatable personal stories of grief.
After that is a small-group discussion to allow people time to talk, share support, and personally apply what they learned on the video. Everyone will receive a book to take home filled with valuable exercises for navigating their personal grieving process. Refreshments will be served.
Please click the button below to register. You will be sent to the GriefShare website to register for Braemar Baptist’s support group. You will then be contacted with more information in the coming weeks.
Frequently Asked Questions
Who should attend?
Anyone who has experienced the loss of a loved one would benefit from attending GriefShare. The sessions are open to all ages, as a loss can involve a friend, spouse, sibling, child or other family member. We all process grief in different ways, so the loss also doesn't need to be recent. The program is open to members and attendees of Braemar, but please share the info about the program and recommend it to anyone you think would benefit: friends, neighbors, family members...anyone!
