Grieving in a Forward Direction (1)

Presented by Pastor Don Follis, director of Pastor-to-Pastor Initiatives

Grief is around us all the time. We lose loved ones, jobs, marriages, friendships, health and dreams. Life is full of pain and sorrow. Grief can stop us in our tracks, but we can move forward by pressing in and grieving well.

The Psalms are full of laments; Jesus wept; and the Apostle Paul instructs us to mourn with those who mourn. The seminar explores the emotions and seasons of grief, looks at the "what ifs" grief robs us of ever getting to experience and allows for lots of group interaction and participation as we consider grieving in a forward direction.

The cost is $10/person. A continental breakfast is included.

Please register online or by calling the church office at 217-359-3631. Registration deadline is Wednesday, April 18th.
