St. Mary’s Parish Good Samaritan House Announces Fall Sessions of Bereavement Ministry

Two weekly support groups for the bereaved and those struggling with unresolved loss will begin the second week of September 2023.

Both sessions will run for ten consecutive weeks. The primary goals of the groups are to help the participants learn about the grief process, develop skills to manage their grief, and help them adjust to living in a world without the deceased.

The groups are open to anyone who has lost a spouse, partner, parent, or sibling – including non-parishioners and people of other faiths.
