GRIEFSHARE SUPPORT GROUP BEGINS JANUARY 9

Have you lost a loved one recently, or do you have a

friend who has? If so, we have a special GriefShare support

group that can be helpful to you or that person. A new class

will begin Wednesday, January 9, at 10:30 a.m., in Room MC-

107A. We have wonderful ladies who prepare lunch for these

groups, which they serve at 12 noon, when the class ends

each Wednesday.

The death of a spouse, child, family member, or close

friend can be devastating. Christians are able to claim an external

perspective and rejoice that the person that they lost is now in the

presence of God. Even so, as humans, we must grieve a loss that

is so deep and significant. The grieving process is lengthy and

intense. Even mature Christians with a solid faith need ongoing

comfort and encouragement during the grieving period. People

without a faith face a bleak mourning process. Without the encour-

agement that comes from the assurance of eternal life, the issues

accompanying grief are significant.

GriefShare, a ministry led by Jean Birckhead, trained

facilitator, (assisted by Sherree Robinson and Frank Beamon) is

designed to provide essential tools and structure to help those

who have lost loved ones. Please come if you need help with the

grief process.
