About GriefShare
The death of a loved one is painful. GriefShare is a friendly, caring group of people who will walk alongside you through one of life’s most difficult experiences. You don’t have to go through the grieving process alone. GriefShare groups are led by people who understand what you are going through and want to help. You’ll gain access to valuable GriefShare resources to help you recover from your loss and look forward to rebuilding your life.

What To Expect
GriefShare groups meet weekly to help you face the challenges that come from the death of a loved one, with valuable resources. Each GriefShare session has three distinct elements:
Video seminar with experts
Each week your GriefShare group will watch a video seminar featuring top experts on grief and recovery subjects. These videos are produced in an interesting television magazine format featuring expert interviews, real-life case studies, dramatic reenactments, and on-location videos.
Support group discussion with a focus
After viewing the video, you and the other group members will spend time as a support group discussing what was presented in that week’s video seminar and what is going on in your lives.
Personal study and reflection
During the week, you will have the opportunity to use your workbook for further personal study of the grieving process and to help sort out your emotions through journaling. Your group will spend time discussing questions and comments from the workbook study.
The following topics will be covered:
1 - Is This Normal?
2 - Your Grief Journey
3 - Loneliness and Sadness
4 - Self Care
5 - Fearful and Overwhelmed
6 - Anger
7 - Regrets
8 - Grief and Your Household
9 - Grief and Your Friendships
10 - Questions for God
11 - Stuck in Grief
12 - Hope and Resilience
13 - What Do I Live For Now?
The GriefShare workbook is $25 and can be purchased during the first session.
