Healing Through Sharing Our Grief Journey-
 
But you, O Lord are a shield around me, my glory, and the one who lifts my head, Psalm 3:3. Grief is the price we pay for love. We come out of it better able to help others. We have walked through the valley of the shadow of grief. We can understand. If you have experienced the loss of a loved one recently or in the past years and would like to share your grief journey.
 
We will be having a group session on Saturday, September 6th – 10:00 a.m. – 1:30 p.m. here at the church.
 
If you would like to attend, you can email comfortministrybbc@yahoo.com or call the church office.
