transitions: your journey through grief and loss (nov. 1-4, 2010)

This retreat will provide insight, hope and prayerful support as you journey through a time of grief. Loss or anticipated loss of spouse, partner or family member, loss of good health in yourself or someone you love, loss of a job or underemployment, retirement from a much loved job, or the ending of a marriage or significant relationship are some of the life experiences that might bring participants to this retreat.

You can take part whether you are currently grieving, or experienced a loss some time ago and have not given yourself time to grieve.

This retreat will give you the time and tools to work through your grief in a peaceful space with support from others who are on this same journey.

Each session begins with prayer and a reflection on a particular aspect of grief and loss through the eyes of Mary, a young Jewish woman and mother of Jesus.
