How to cope with grief during the holidays.

Hopefully, this discussion will help you identify where you are in the grief process so you can take your specific current needs to the Lord, and it will give you helpful talking points to discuss with your professional counselors.

In addition to the loss of life for someone near and dear to us, we will also discuss other types of loss that also causes grief. The main 4 types of grief from non-death events are:
Loss of identity: A lost role or affiliation.
Loss of safety: The lost sense of physical, emotional, and mental well-being.
Loss of autonomy: The lost ability to manage one’s own life and affairs.
Loss of dreams or expectations: Dealing with hopes and dreams going unfulfilled.

We will discuss the various steps in the grief process.

The Hope for Everyone:
You are loved by God.
You have support.
You will have abundant life despite the setbacks or diagnosis.
