Grief Support Group

Description:

On Friday, January 20, we will have the first meeting of our Temple Beth Emeth Grief Support Group. The group is designed for anyone who has experienced the death of a loved one, recently or in the past. A licensed clinical psychologist with extensive bereavement experience will be facilitating the group meeting with Cantor Annie Rose. Our group is designed to offer readings and support for grief and loss in Jewish framework. It will be held over a 5-week period (through Friday, February 17). Each session will build upon the previous one, so we recommend that all participants attend each session.

This program is different from our Mourning and Mitzvah classes, so if you have been part of that program in the past, you will not find this redundant. While Mourning and Mitzvah was centered in study and discussion, with some time for processing, our TBE Grief Support Group is designed with processing/support as the central focus. Our texts will be drawn from a variety of Jewish sources.

For more information, please email Rabbi Lisa Delson, or email Cantor Annie Rose or call 665-4744.
