Grief Share: Surviving the Holidays is a helpful, encouraging seminar for people facing the holidays after a loved one’s death. It will be facilitated by Deacon Julie Tilton on Saturday morning, October 19, from 9:30 to 11:30 a.m. in the All Saints’ Administrative Conference Room. You can register at https://www.griefshare.org/events/247781.

The seminar features video interviews with counselors, grief experts, and other people who have experienced the holidays after a loved one’s death and who offer practical suggestions and reassurance. These people share honestly about:

• Being prepared for surprising emotions that may hit over the holidays

• What to do about traditions and other coming changes

• How to handle holiday parties and invitations

• How to survive potentially awkward moments with other people

• Where to find comfort, strength, and hope in a seemingly hopeless time

Those who attend will receive a Survival Guide filled with practical tips, encouraging words, journaling ideas, and exercises for daily help through the holiday season.
