THE BEREAVEMENT JOURNEY

The Bereavement Journey is run over 7 sessions, and is for anyone who has been bereaved at any time and in any way. By means of a series of short videos and small groups for discussion, it gently guides bereaved people through the most common aspects of grief.

People who attend the course value being in a group with other people who understand what it is to be bereaved.

One participant said “Talking about my bereavement has really helped me come to terms with my loss and deal with my emotions.”

The next course will be on Friday mornings at The Chapel, starting 2nd October and ending on 27th November.  This includes 2 weeks where we’ll be meeting for our monthly Bereavement Cafe instead of the course.
It is essential to book onto the course, so please sign up:

For further info about the Bereavement Journey you can visit the national website: The Bereavement Journey
For more information, please contact Sarah at sarah@gatewayvineyard.church or 07526 239276.

 

We also host a Bereavement Cafe – a space to drop in for a drink and a biscuit and chat about anything bereavement-related. This is held at the Chapel from 10:30-12:00 on the following Friday mornings:

September 18th             October 16th

November 20th              December 18th

Compassion Projects

Showing God’s love and compassion through caring for those in need.

Jesus encourages us to feed those who are hungry and to give clothes to those in need, telling us that whenever we do this, we are doing it for Him.

(Matthew 25:31-46)
