GRIEF SUPPORT GROUP

1st and 3rd Tuesday of each month at 6:00 PM 

Dublin Community Church Hall, 1125 Main Street, Dublin, NH.

Are you mourning the loss of a loved one and seeking support on your grief journey? Grief is not linear; it is cyclical.  If you or someone you know would benefit from a Grief Group, one is held every 1st and 3rd Tuesday of each month from 6-7 in the Dublin Church Hall. Join us for our ongoing grief support group, where individuals can come together to share their experiences, emotions, and challenges in a compassionate and understanding space. The group offers a safe environment for participants to explore their grief, find comfort in connecting with others who understand their pain, and learn coping strategies to navigate the ups and downs of bereavement.  If you’re facing recent loss or it’s been some time and you are still struggling, please consider joining us; this group welcomes individuals at any stage of their grief journey.   The group is hosted by Rev. Jessica Johansson.  She is working for donations so please make one if you are able.  Jessica can be contacted at jessica@holisticendoflifedoula.com
