You don’t have to go through grief alone.


GriefShare is a safe, caring group of people who will walk alongside you through one of life’s most difficult experiences. You’ll find encouragement, comfort, and help in facing the days ahead—and hope for the future.

What is GriefShare?

GriefShare is a 13-week, Christ-centered support group for people who are grieving the loss of a loved one. Each week includes:

  • Video sessions featuring expert interviews, real-life stories, and practical advice.

  • Group discussions where you can share or simply listen as others walk a similar path.

  • Personal workbook exercises to help you process your grief, find healing, and apply biblical truths in daily life.

Who can attend?

GriefShare is for anyone who has lost a spouse, child, family member, or friend. You are welcome whether your loss is recent or from years ago.

What to Expect

  • A warm, caring environment led by trained facilitators who understand what you are going through.

  • Practical guidance on how to cope with loss and live with hope.

  • Encouragement from others who are walking the same road of grief.
