The Grief Ministry
Mission:
To address the impact of grief, self, family, and community.
History:
The Grief Ministry was formed on March 9, 2008. Terese Hovan was the organizing chair.
We respond to all types of grief including the death of a loved one, death of a pet, divorce, loss of a job, loss of a home and loss of lifestyle.
Packets are available for death of a pet. Please contact the Grief Ministry chair for more information.
The Grief Ministry meets on the second Sunday every other month following worship.
Goals:
- In a grief situation to keep in contact for one year with cards, calls, and visits
- Assist with funerals/memorial services
