“Surviving the Holidays” Community Seminar on December 9th

The GriefShare “Surviving the Holidays” is a helpful, encouraging seminar for people facing the holidays after a loved one’s death. The seminar will be held Mon., Dec. 9th at Peace Lutheran Church in the Fellowship Hall from 5-7pm. Peace Lutheran Church address is: 300 Lincoln St., Antigo. Use the 8th Ave. parking lot and enter through Door #3 for the Fellowship Hall.

The seminar features practical suggestions and reassurance through video interviews with counselors, grief experts, and other people who have experienced the holidays after their loved one’s death. Topics to be discussed include dealing with hard-hitting emotions, what to do about traditions, how to survive social events, and where to find comfort and strength.

At GriefShare “Surviving the Holidays”, you’ll meet with other grieving people who have an understanding of what you’re going through. They won’t judge you or force you to share, but will accept you where you are and will offer comfort and support.

Your holiday season won’t be easy; your emotions may ambush you and overwhelm you at times, but you can choose to walk through this season in a way that honors your loved one and puts you on the path of health and healing.
