The MUMC Bereavement Support Group is comprised of members whose spouse or partner has died. Everyone grieves differently and in their own way, and the Support Group provides a safe place for members to share each other’s experiences, concerns, and emotions that may be causing pain. It is a time set aside for the grieving person to process their own personal grief, away from the day-to-day frustrations and interruptions we all experience. The fundamental benefit of the Bereavement Support Group is knowing you are not alone, and Christ is always with you.
Allen Nixon facilitates each meeting and Pastor Lee attends to give us Christian guidance. There is no specific agenda, and at the meeting one may express what is troubling them, their emotions, cry, or remain silent, and do this without fear of judgement, as the members know what they are going through.
Also, around the first of each month, an article or two concerning the grieving process is sent to Group members; an example of this is “7 Strategies for Managing Grief During the Holidays.”
If you’d like to join or need more info, contact the pastor or Allen Nixon, Facilitator, via the contact form.
