Care Ministries

Grief Journey Group

The grief support group, Grief Journey, is co-facilitated by Pastor Lisa Hackler and Susan Beach, both of whom have extensive experience in grief counseling. This group provides a safe and supportive place where bereaved persons can mourn, share feelings, review the loss, and learn new coping skills. It also includes an educational component. Topics include: Understanding Grief, Self-Care, Emotional Reactions, Possessions, Coping with the Holidays, and others. If you are interested in joining us, please get in touch with the church office at 623-974-2512 for more information.

Card Making Class

The card making class meets on Mondays at 1:30 PM in classroom C. We make special cards for the church to mail out to people who are homebound, in the hospital, or who had families members who have passed away. Cards are also used for group members to take home for their personal use. Lastly, we make cards for the Women’s Ministry to sell and make money for their various needs. Outside of taking a collection for supplies, there is no additional cost. Most of the people who attend this group have never made cards before, so there is instruction to help. That means anyone, no prior skills are required! If you are willing to try, come join us!
