Room 16, under McDonough Hall

One experience we all share is the loss of someone we love through death. Yet we live in a society that often avoids acknowledging grief and expects us to “return to normal” within a few short weeks. That simply isn’t realistic.

In response to this need, Holy Spirit will offer a Grief Support Group for members of our community who are living with the loss of a loved one. This nine-week journey is dedicated to walking alongside those who are grieving, offering a space to share experiences, learn what to expect in the grieving process, and—most importantly—connect with others who understand this pain and are willing to listen. If you have experienced a loss and are struggling to adjust or feel as though you are not making progress, we invite you to consider joining us.

The program is based on Dr. Alan Wolfelt’s book Understanding Your Grief: The Ten Essential Touchstones for Finding Hope and Healing Your Heart. Each participant will receive a book and journal at the first session. The cost is $27.00 for materials, due at the first meeting. This is a closed group, so pre-registration is required. Space is limited. 

The group will be led by parishioner Ellen Cocks, a trained facilitator with a certificate in death and grief studies, specializing in companioning others through grief. Rob Adams, also a Holy Spirit parishioner, will serve as co-facilitator. If you are interested or would like more information, contact Ellen at ellen@sweetlittlesoul.com. Ellen will also provide you with the room location.
