GRIEF SHARE
Grief is the normal reaction to a loss of any kind. Grief is a bundle of emotions, and it is experienced holistically – physically, emotionally, and spiritually. Everyone grieves differently, but no one should grieve alone. Grief Share is a group in which you learn about good and godly grief, and can talk about your grief process with others who are grieving, under the watchful care of a trained grief counselor. The next class is to-be-determined. Private appointments are also available upon request.
For more information and to register, contact Erich.
POST ABORTION
This is a group for women who would like to heal from past abortions. It is a confidential Bible study, held off-campus by a trained post-abortion counselor, and focuses on the power of forgiveness … God’s forgiveness of us and our forgiveness of ourselves. Starts this Fall 2016.
For more information and to register, contact Muriel.
BOUNDARIES
We study and discuss the award-winning book and video series Boundaries: When to say “yes” and how to say “no” by Henry Cloud and John Townsend. Their teaching lays a biblical foundation for understanding what boundaries are and how they can help us live out God’s command to love one another in freedom and authenticity.
