Grief Share

Have you experienced the death of a family member or friend? Grief Share will walk through the grieving process with you. After the funeral, most of the people around you return to their normal lives, but your grief continues, and you feel alone; you have difficulty coping. Our Grief Share Group understands because we have been in the same place. We will walk with you on the long path through grief toward healing and hope for the future. We will start a new 14-week session in English on Saturday, January 6, from 9:30am to 11:30am. To enroll, contact Trudy M. at 678-641-4956 or griefshare@popfb.org.
