Faith Doesn’t Erase Grief

Sundays, October 22-December 10 (no meeting Nov. 26) | 6:30-8:00 PM

Led by Chaplain Missi Koenig 

Grief is a difficult but natural part of life—you don’t have to do it alone. Our NEW text Faith Doesn’t Erase Grief (2022, by Kate Meyer, MDiv, LPC) blends grief psychology, biblical accounts, and everyday experience. This practical guide will help you better understand grief and give you personalized tools to navigate each phase of grief at your own pace.

Whether you lost a loved one long ago or recently—or if you are grieving a different kind of loss in your life—you are welcome to join this group experience.  No meeting 11/26.

Books will be available in mid September.
