Rev. Ruthann Banner

Grief is our common ground. The healing is always found by talking about the suffering you are experiencing.

The journey through grief is a path to wholeness.

We are here to support your personal grief, with love and understanding. Do not be misled by that old adage “Time heals all wounds”.  It is what you do with the time during your grief that counts.

We invite you to our grief group, Tuesdays at 5 PM to share your journey and receive new ideas to plan ahead.

Please enter through the Chicory Street entrance, on the south side of the sanctuary. During the months of June through August the meetings will be held in the OM Room.

Facilitated by:
