GriefShare: Surviving the Holidays is a helpful, encouraging seminar for people facing the holidays after a loved one’s death. It will be facilitated on Zoom by Deacon Julie Tilton on Thursday, October 9, 6:30-8:30 p.m.

The seminar features video interviews with counselors, grief experts, and other people who have experienced the holidays after a loved one’s death and who offer practical suggestions and reassurance. These people share honestly about:

· Being prepared for surprising emotions that may hit over the holidays

· What to do about traditions and other coming changes

· How to handle holiday parties and invitations

· How to survive potentially awkward moments with other people

· Where to find comfort, strength, and hope in a seemingly hopeless time

You can register at https://www.griefshare.org/events/275827. While registering, you will also order the Survival Guide Workbook for $12 plus shipping. We will use this book while discussing the video. There is no other cost. The Zoom link will be shared with those who register.
