Grief Support Group

Surviving the Holidays

For those who have experienced the death of a loved one, the approaching holidays often bring mixed feelings of sadness, nostalgia, and even dread.

On Monday, November 13, from 7:00 to 9:00 p.m., Shadyside Presbyterian Church’s Grief Support Group will gather in the Craig Room. To help you prepare for the holidays, the discussion will be filled with practical and uplifting ideas for the weeks ahead. Please feel free to bring a family member or friend.

Shadyside Presbyterian Church Care and Support Ministries offers a Grief Support Group designed to provide encouragement and a faith-centered perspective for those who have lost a loved one. The group meets regularly to discuss a variety of subjects that are important in the grief recovery process, including the range of emotions which grief brings, and resources for moving forward. Sessions are led by a pastor or grief counselor and an experienced grief support facilitator. New participants are always welcome to join; there is no cost to attend the group, which is a ministry sponsored by the Board of Deacons.

For more information, please contact Rev. Lynn Portz or call the church office.
