Event Description

Fall Dates:

September 8  RSVP HERE  - We will be pooling our knowledge and experience and talking about what we would include in a 'Grief Support Kit' and what we wouldn't.


October 13 RSVP HERE

November 10 RSVP HERE

December 8 RSVP HERE


Whatever your grief experience is, it's important and helpful to stay connected to people and community. To sorrow together, to share our stories, to laugh or cry together, and to realize our experience isn't unique. 


Everyone is welcome. Even if you have no grief story to share, you can be a support and light for others or be a good listener of other's stories. 


We especially want to provide an opportunity to re-convene after our October program at ON THE EDGE and to continue to provide comfort and solidarity in a death and grief 'safe zone' with like-minded others from the community. 


Parking: Park in the church parking lot or on nearby streets. Enter via the back door in the parking lot. Someone will be there to welcome you and direct you to the room.  Other groups will be using the building on the same evening. 


Drinks and cookies will be provided with cozy decor and vibes.  


RSVP above if you can or email us. Or feel free to just turn up - RSVP's just helps us know how many cookies to bring and to make sure we put out enough chairs. 

Evening Program 6:30-8:30pm

Each evening will include:


  • A relaxation or meditation exercise
  • An opportunity to share your grief story with others in the circle (optional) or listen to others
  • A creative/writing exercise or memorial ritual or discussion


Facilitated by Jennie Beth Banks and Friends. 


If it's your first time attending, we like to make it clear that we are a little more structured than some grief support groups and although there is an opportunity for you to share your story and experience, we like to pick a specific topic to talk about and focus on during the session.
