Beginning Experience Coping is a six-week series designed to help individuals work through the trauma of losing their spouse, whether by divorce, separation or death. Participants are introduced to the Stages of Grief, a normal response to any significant loss.
All sessions are led by a trained group of men and women who themselves are either divorced, separated or widowed. It is a peer ministry of people caring for people.
The program follows a specific topic each week, and consists of a presentation and personal talk given by a trained facilitator on that week's topic. It is followed by a 10-minute reflection time in which each participant answers questions related to the topic. This is followed by small group personal dialogue.
All locations start at 7:00 p.m. A $20 donation for six sessions is suggested, but no one is excluded because of inability to donate. Call Family Life Office, 551-9003 for more information.
