Separated, divorced, widowed, others dealing with grief.

Weekend experience for persons who have worked through the initial anger and despair after the death or separation of a spouse (usually six months). The weekend is designed to assist persons in working through stages of grief and bringing closure to the past so they can begin anew. The rhythm of the weekend is: presentation by team members, personal reflection and writing, small group sharing. The weekend is not a sensitivity session nor a cure-all; it is a confidential, supportive opportunity for persons to grow.

Friday night to Sunday afternoon; weekends held four times annually.

Persons who have experienced a death, separation or divorce at least six months prior to weekend. Phone screening prior to weekend attendance.
