  • Grief Recovery Class
    In a series of six sessions the Grief Recovery Class offers a time of learning and sharing with others in order to find God’s plan in your journey through grief. Understanding the grief process is reassuring and healing after a divorce, losing a loved one, or a job. Doing grief work allows us to put our losses in perspective and use the gifts of love that we have had to regain our balance. God has promised the return of joy into our lives when we trust Him!
