‘Surviving the Holidays’ Seminar Thursday

When you’re grieving the death of a family member or friend, you may dread the holiday season. Thoughts of social gatherings, family traditions and obligations leave you anxious and overwhelmed. Have you lost a loved one or know someone that will find it difficult to face the coming holidays?

Our GriefShare Surviving the Holidays seminar, held Thursday in Wesley Hall of Noblesville First United Methodist Church (Enter Door #7) from 7-9 p.m., is open to anyone who is experiencing grief after the loss of a loved one. Our program offers practical, actionable strategies for making it through the holiday season.

At this two-hour seminar, you’ll view a video featuring advice from people in grief who’ve faced the holidays after their loss. Facilitators that have experienced grief- filled holidays, will lead us in discussion of how to manage all holidays and special dates in your life now.
