Grief is a bumpy path. Whether you lost your friend or loved one two weeks ago or twenty years ago, if you are hurting, Griefshare can help.
Please consider giving yourself the gift of joining us in Winnemucca for our first series of Griefshare meetings in 2023. I promise you that making the first call and walking into your first meeting is the toughest part…and I’m more than happy to help you through it.
We’ll begin meeting on Thursday February 16, 6-745 pm at the United Methodist church on Winnemucca Blvd. We will meet on 13 Thursdays over 14 weeks, taking a week off for Easter. All materials are offered free of charge for participating adults. A light supper is provided each week.
Through an expertly crafted combination of weekly video lessons, an interactive workbook and group discussions, participants can learn the skills and lessons necessary to positively process grief and truly move from mourning to joy. Griefshare is active in over 15,000 churches worldwide. Our group is lead by Kris Stewart and pastor Judy Robbins. It is open to adults of any or no religious affiliation. Please contact Kris at 775 304-9399 or Judy at 775) 623-2814 to reserve a place for yourself at Griefshare Winnemucca.
I can personally promise you that if you participate in this program and want to feel better, you can. I feel like I was called to bring this program home to Humboldt county, and I’m dedicated to the program because our community desperately needs it and because I know from personal experience that it works.
I didn’t think that I could rebound from the grief I felt at the unexpected loss of my husband Fred in 2019. I wasn’t suicidal but I desperately wanted to be with my husband and honestly, my love for our daughter and my family is the only thing that kept me going in those early days. I tried reading books, seeing a counselor and online programs but nothing touched my pain until I discovered Griefshare. I really thought that I’d simply have to endure feeling the way I did for the rest of my life. Griefshare changed that for me. I had to drive myself weekly to Carson City to attend meetings but it was so worth the effort. I will always love and miss my dear husband and the life we shared together; but, I can honestly say that I now wake with an optimistic and joyful outlook on life. I know that things will never go back to “normal”, but I also know that life can be happy and purposeful again.
Please give me a call and reserve your seat at Griefshare, it’s truly life changing and I promise that you can feel good again.
Don’t put this off, because you can start feeling better right away.
