Grief Recovery is a ministry to people who have lost a loved one. Christian counselor Cheri Rogers leads a GriefShare Grief Recovery support group on Monday from
6 – 7:30 p.m. in Willowbrook’s Small Dining Room. GriefShare is a Christian film series in which interviews are conducted with ministers, Christian counselors, and laymen who have experienced the loss of a loved one. Group participants meet others who are grieving similar losses, discuss their loss in a small group, and learn how God seeks to comfort us during difficult times. Topics include understanding the grieving process and how to overcome and survive grief. The film series is designed so that you may join the grief recovery group at any point. We have people who join throughout the series. The sooner you join after a loss, the faster you will recover. Please, join us as soon as possible. The next session will begin January 8, 2007. Call 256-883-LIFE to register.

The Parents’ Grief Recovery
The Parents’ Grief Recovery is a separate meeting on the first Monday of each month from 6-8 p.m. Parents, who have lost a child of any age, have two hours to share their thoughts and feelings with each other. It does not matter how long ago your child died, you are welcome. When a holiday falls on the first Monday, this group meets on the second Monday. There is no film series for this meeting. Parents may attend as they feel a need for support from other parents who truly understand the pain of losing a child. Attending the GriefShare meetings on the remaining Monday nights is helpful, but not necessary.
