Grief Support
If you have lost a spouse, child, family member, or friend, and you feel there are not many people who understand the deep hurt you feel, the GriefShare support group is a nondenominational program that features biblical concepts for healing from your grief.
GriefShare groups meet weekly, for 13-week cycles, and help you face the confusion, isolation, and challenges that come with a loss while also answering your questions and helping you move toward rebuilding your life. Each week is a different seminar topic and you can join at any point; attendance does not have to be sequential. Contact 724-524-1913 or visit http://www.griefshare.org/ for more information. There is a $20.00 registration fee.
Meets Wednesdays 6:30-8:30 pm at Christ Our Hope Anglican Church, 926 Painter Avenue, Natrona Heights, PA 15065. Childcare available if needed, please call the number listed.
As a true community partner, the VNA provides free counseling services and support groups to adults, teens, children and family caregivers following the loss of a loved one.
