Grief is the price we pay for love.

– Queen Elizabeth II

The five stages – denial, anger, bargaining, depression, and acceptance –  are a part of the framework that makes up our learning to live with the one we lost. They are tools to help us frame and identify what we may be feeling. But they are not stops on some linear timeline in grief. – Elisabeth Kubler-Ross

We would appreciate if you are able to let us know if you wish to attend on a particular night. While we will not turn you away, space and time are limited and we’d like to allow each participant an opportunity to participate. Thank you for your patience and understanding

We recognize that there may be some uncertainty in attending a meeting in a church. We would like to reassure you that we are not affiliated with the church nor do we promote any religion. We’d also like to reassure you that if religion does play a part in your life you are welcome to use it as part of your journey with us.
