Healing & Prayer
Grief Ministry
When we lose a loved one, we grieve. Grief is our love persevering through loss, and it can be very difficult to manage the overwhelming emotion that we feel. Our Parish invites those experiencing grief to share in the support, compassion, and understanding through our Group Support Ministry.
Through prayer, sharing, and small group discussions you can find the tools you need to help sustain and comfort you on your grief journey – and to know the support of your parish family and community.
These are open sessions, which means you can join for one or all of the meetings throughout the session.
If you would like to have someone visit you in your home to provide grief support or Holy Communion – or if have any pastoral care ministry questions, please contact the parish office at 651-426-3245.
