GriefShare Ministries at St. John's. Meets on Thursday evenings at 7:00PM

St. John's partners with GriefShare a network of thousands of grief recovery groups throughout the world. GriefShare is a group process designed to help you successfully travel the journey from mourning to joy. GriefShare compliments St. John's mission so that grief recovery can be a healing experience where you Meet Jesus, Experience the Support of the Church and Live anew as Disciples.

In each GriefShare session our facilitators, Marnie Smith and Jean Durham guide the group through a video presentation and discussion. Feel free to contact them for more information. Both ladies have experienced the loss of a spouse and family members and can share their insights.

The GriefShare videos feature interviews with leading authors, counselors, speakers, and pastors with years of expertise in grief recovery. You are welcome to begin attending the GriefShare group at any session. Each session is “self-contained,” so you do not have to attend in sequence. You will find encouragement and help whenever you begin. The video link at the right shares testimonials from GriefShare participants and how they have learned to heal from grief.

The Winter Session
This 13 week sessions begins January 10, 2013  and meets every Thursday for  13 weeks in the Heritage Room.

When I am in the word daily, I feel God’s presence. I have an easier time resisting temptation and discerning His will. Reading daily doesn’t have to be doggedly endured. There are fresh new ways to do it. I can be on autopilot and it allows God to be in charge. With Him in charge, it gives ....


 

Sunday youth studies have helped me grow in my faith. Mr. Zagone listens to us, respects where we are coming from and values us as part of the church. I go to youth group because I always wanted a teen example in my life growing up and I found one in Danielle. Youth group lets us..


Being involved in choir has been great. I get to know people and create friendships with a common bond over the love of music. Sure beats sitting in a pew on Sundays and not getting involved. The songs we’re learning really stick with you and I find myself ....


I started small groups because I was invited. That simple gesture has led to making connections and starting other new small groups. I am open to meeting new people and seeing the resources God has given us with people and we get to see how He works in our lives. People can be threatened by church. Small groups are ...


I was searching for a church. We brought my son Cam to St. John’s to look at the school. I was so impressed with the school that we started attending church also. After two services I told my mom, “This is where I want to be!” Everyone was so welcoming and St. John’s school has such a friendly atmosphere. You can truly see the love and care between teachers, students, parents and volunteers. I felt welcomed and appreciated almost immediately. ~Amy – School Ministry
