MENDING OUR HEARTS
Mending Our Hearts Through Christ
St. John’s Ministry of Consolation
“So you have pain now; but I will see you again, and your hearts will rejoice, and
no one will take your joy from you.” John 16:22
Mending Our Hearts Through Christ is a consolation ministry that
provides support to our brothers and sisters who are struggling to recover
from the loss of a loved one. Following a 10-week structured format that
uses “The New Day Journal: A Journey From Grief to Healing”, participants
walk through the tasks of grieving and begin to plan a life without their
loved ones. This process is not a counselling service, a program, or a
class. Rather, it is a support group of no more than 10 people that helps
others through their grief journey. Groups are led by compassionate
leaders who have been through extensive training by the diocese and who
have themselves participated in this 10-week grieving process. Group size
is limited and fills up quickly, so sign up soon.
