In response to meeting the needs of those who have experienced the loss of a loved one, Our Lady of Mount Carmel Parish offers the opportunity to attend a 6-week grief support group. Sessions are held once per week for 1 ½ hours. The group explores, within a trusting and nurturing environment, their reactions to loss, the grieving process, and strategies for coping. Group members are given the tools necessary to integrate changes into their lives which will help them move forward with HOPE.
Support groups are intentionally kept to a relatively small size with no more than 9 people in each group. If you, or someone you know, would benefit from attending a grief support group, call the parish office and speak with Darwin Reeck at 941-966-0807 x303.
