AND BEGIN TO LIVE AGAIN
ARE YOU READY TO MOVE ON FROM YOUR GRIEF?
Losing your spouse is a heart-wrenching experience.
We know. We’ve been there.
Joyful Again! can help you or the people in your family cope with the normal feelings of grief experienced when a husband or wife has died - widows and widowers often have feelings of confusion, loneliness, loss of identity and self esteem.
A SPIRITUAL WEEKEND
A SPIRITUAL WEEKEND
How is Joyful Again! different than other “grief groups”?
Joyful Again! is a weekend retreat. Our workshop is run by peer ministers who’ve also been widowed. It’s a 2-day commitment that can help you move forward in your grief toward psychological, spiritual and emotional wholeness.
Men and women of all ages and all faiths meet to:
- Celebrate your loved one’s life
- Reflect on how your spouse’s death impacts your own life
- Share your story with trained facilitators and others who’ve been widowed
IS A JOYFUL AGAIN WEEKEND REALLY FOR ME?
Have you been to grief support groups, but are still asking “Does it ever get better?”
Are you having difficulty resolving feelings of guilt over your spouse’s death?
Are you unable to move on to build a new life for yourself?
If so, Joyful Again! is for you.
Everyone’s story is unique. But we share a common path. Watch as the four people in our video who have experienced the loss of their spouses share their stories of loss, acceptance and moving forward.
