Surviving the Holidays
Are you experiencing loss, grief, or divorce? As the holiday season approaches, are you dreading all that's to come? Do you feel isolated, confused, burdened?
Join us for Surviving the Holidays, a one-off group where, depending upon your challenge, we'll gather to process through the experience as we engage the holiday season.
Check out opportunities below:
Facing grief this holiday season? You are not alone. In fact, we’re planning a gathering for grieving people to talk about what to expect this season and to learn how to deal with the many emotions brought on by the holidays. Will you join us?
You will receive support and practical tips for navigating the holidays after a loss. This will be a safe and encouraging environment where people understand what you are going through.
Here is what you can expect:
- We will equip you with a holiday survival guide.
- We will watch a video with practical tips from experts
- We will hear from one of our pastors
- We will have a small group discussion (you are not required to share)
- We will give gifts at the end to remember your loved one in a special way.
People who have attended these events in the past have shared how helpful this event was knowing that they were not alone.

It may be hard for you to feel optimistic about the future right now. If you’ve lost a spouse, child, family member, or friend, you’ve probably found there are not many people who understand the deep hurt you feel. This can be a confusing time when you feel isolated and have many questions about things you’ve never faced before.
GriefShare groups meet weekly to help you face these challenges and move toward rebuilding your life. You will find a friendly, caring group of people who will walk alongside you through one of life’s most difficult experiences. You don’t have to go through the grieving process alone.
Meeting Info
GriefShare meets weekly on Wednesday evenings from 7 to 8:30pm beginning September 4. Groups will meet for 13 weeks at The Chapel (575 Diley Rd, Pickerington, OH 43147).
*Group materials are $20. Childcare is available.

We’ve all been hurt by other people, we’ve hurt ourselves, and we’ve hurt others. And as a result, every single one of us ends up with some sort of hurt, hang-up, or habit. But the question we all face is, “where do we go from here?”
Using the Beatitudes of Jesus as a foundation for the practical, encouraging biblical teaching, this care group will focus on eight choices in life that have the potential to heal the hurt.
Through making each of these choices, you can find God’s pathway to wholeness, growth, spiritual maturity, happiness, and healing. You’ll find real answers, real hope, and a real future – one healing choice at a time.
