GriefShare Bereavement Support Group at St. James Lutheran Church

Press release from Deacon James Lundgren:

July 13, 2021

For those seeking help and encouragement after the death of a spouse, child, family
member or close friend, St. James Lutheran Church announces GriefShare – a 13-
session program that will be offered at 10:00AM on Wednesdays from September 8th
through December 8th in the Multi-purpose Room of the church office building.
GriefShare is a weekly support group that will be hosted by Bonnie Spiegel, a long-time
Care Giver at St. James Lutheran Church. Each session will include an encouraging,
information-packed video featuring leading grief recovery experts, a group discussion
about the video content and a workbook for journaling and personal study exercises that
reinforce the weekly session topics.

GriefShare is offered free of charge to all members of the community seeking
bereavement support – a warm and caring group “oasis” during their long journeys
through grief. It is completely underwritten by a generous grant from St. James Funeral
Home, owned and operated with love by the Maher family.

St. James Lutheran Church is located at the corner of Woodlawn and Second Avenues
in St. James. Please contact the church office – (631) 584-5212 – for reservations.

Complete program information is available online at www.griefshare.org.
