Coping with Grief – Grief Support Group

Our Bereavement Support Group

Have you recently lost a loved one and are you feeling lonely in your grief?
Grief is a natural part of life, but there are many ways to cope with it. It’s important to give yourself time and to seek help when you need it.

Please feel free to join our “Grief Circle of Hope”—a safe space where you can connect with others who have gone through similar experiences. 
Our experienced grief counselors will offer empathetic support to help you cope with your grief.

Do you have a request or an idea? Then please feel free to contact us.

Dates 

Our bereavement support group meets once a quarter at our funeral home in Jena. 
We meet on the following Saturdays from 2:00 to 4:00 p.m.: 
 

  • August 22, 2026
  • November 7, 2026


What to expect:

  • Sharing experiences—because it’s helpful to talk to others about your loss and confide in someone who can offer understanding and support
  • other topics that move and interest us—for example, creative activities and music help us form new thoughts
  • a relaxed atmosphere with coffee and tea

Take some time for yourself and find comfort in the community. We’re here for you. 
Join our grief support group and allow yourself to find hope again. 

Your grief counselor, Claudia Selle
