A Bereavement Support Group is offered in the parish. Sessions are the first Wednesday of the month at 2:00 PM in the conference room of the parish center. This group provides emotional and spiritual support for anyone who has suffered the loss of a loved one through death. Sometimes it helps and comforts to just talk with others who have undergone similar experiences. We offer a friendly, informal setting in which we can gain insight into the grieving process through dialogue and personal stories, drawing strength and understanding from others. Sessions are facilitated by Mary Rose DeMarco and Jeanne Gracon.
If you are interested in participating in this group or if you have any questions, please call Jeanne Gracon, Pastoral Care Associate, at 371-9632 ext. 11.
