Griefshare

A safe place to find hope and healing after losing someone you love

You Belong Here

You don't have to grieve alone

Loss changes everything. Whether you've lost a spouse, parent, child, sibling, or dear friend, grief can feel overwhelming and isolating. The weight of emotions, the flood of questions, the loneliness—it's more than anyone should have to carry alone.Let's be honest—life can feel like you're carrying it all alone. Work pressures, family responsibilities, personal struggles—sometimes you just need other guys who get it.God didn't design men to walk alone. Whether you're crushing it or barely hanging on, every man needs a community that challenges him to grow, holds him accountable, and stands with him through life's battles.

You weren't meant to walk through this valley by yourself.

Our GriefShare ministry offers a caring community where you can find comfort, understanding, and practical help as you navigate one of life's most difficult journeys. Here, you'll meet others who truly understand what you're going through because they've been there too.

GriefShare is a 13-week support group where you'll discover you're not alone in your grief. Through video teachings from grief recovery experts, group discussion in a safe and caring environment, and personal study and reflection, you'll find biblical guidance and proven strategies for healing. You'll learn what to expect in the days ahead, gain tools to help you cope with loss, and begin to find a path forward—all while being surrounded by people who care.

Whether your loss is recent or years past, whether you're barely hanging on or just looking for support—you're welcome here. You can join at any point during the 13-week cycle.

We gather to grieve honestly, support one another, find hope in God's promises, and discover that healing is possible—even when it doesn't feel like it right now. You don't have to have all the answers. You don't have to be "over it." You just have to show up.

FAQ

We Know You Might Be Wondering...

Grief is hard enough without worrying about what to expect. Here are answers to questions we hear most often—because we want you to feel completely comfortable joining us.

Do I need to be a member of the church to participate?

Not at all! GriefShare is open to anyone in our community who is grieving the loss of a loved one. You don't need to be a church member or even have a faith background. We welcome people at every stage of their grief journey and faith journey. Come as you are.

What if I'm not ready to talk about my loss?

That's completely okay. There's no pressure to share if you're not ready. Many people find it helpful just to listen and be around others who understand. You can participate as much or as little as feels right for you. This is a safe space where silence is respected just as much as sharing.

How long ago does my loss need to be?

There's no timeline for grief. Whether your loss was recent or years ago, you're welcome here. Some people join shortly after their loved one's death, while others come months or even years later when they realize they need support. Grief doesn't follow a schedule, and neither do we.

What if I get emotional during the meeting?

Tears are welcome here. Grief is painful, and this is a safe place to express that pain. We have tissues, understanding faces, and people who've been exactly where you are. There's no need to "keep it together"—you can be real about what you're feeling.
