• LIVING WITH LOSS

Living with Loss is a workshop for grievers and supporters alike. Participants will learn about the grieving process and gain tools to manage their own grief or support someone else through their grief process. Workshop leader Rev. Lee Anderson, Trinity’s Minister of Care, helps create a safe and supportive environment where participants can be a part of a community of those traveling a similar journey.
