GriefShare is a Christ centered, biblical program that helps people through the loss of a loved one and provides comfort and structure through professional videos and group support. Northlake began GriefShare in November 2009. Since then, many members and people from our community have been blessed.
On May 14, Northlake sponsored an all day GriefShare training workshop for facilitators. The “Boot Camp” helped build depth in the Northlake leader team and also provided training for other GriefShare leaders in other churches. Joyce Tomblin, LPC, led the workshop for eleven participants who sharpened skills and acquired new insights for more effective ministry. Attendees came from six different churches, and five members from Northlake willingly dedicated their Saturday to becoming better equipped facilitators.
The new cycle for GriefShare recovery group begins Sunday evening, August 7th at Northlake. You may register now for the 14 week class. Please pray for this ministry and share the opportunity with friends/co-workers who have suffered loss of loved ones. Brochures are available at the Welcome table. For further information contact Barbara Porter, Sue Finley, Brent Wiseman, or Doris Clark doris@northlake.org.
