Grief Support

Grief has included, and not been limited to, the loss of precious time with family members and friends, and the deaths of loved ones—some who were isolated from us. Grief has accumulated in the absence of shared prayer at Mass under the same roof here at the parish. Too many people have lost their jobs and financial security or meaningful relationships and a sense of dignity.

Our aim is to shape our grief support opportunities to bring some hope and healing grace as we learn to grieve gracefully. Let us support one another in the process!


Grief Support Gatherings

We’ll gather for a simple meal, time of prayer and conversation lead by Sr. Mary and Linda Austin. Linda and Sr. Mary encourage you to join others on a similar life journey. They trust you’ll experience understanding and respectful listening in your healing process. Your registration is helpful, so we know for how many meals to prepare.

TIME: 11:30am-1:00pm

Grief Retreat

The day is contemplative in nature and focuses on Grieving Gracefully in a COVID World. It seems fair to say that all of us have suffered some form of grief during this COVID time and that it would be wise of us to reach out for help. Whatever your grief or loss ... no matter if recent or some while back, you are welcome! CLICK HERE for more information.
