Grief Support Group

Support groups bring together people facing similar issues, whether that’s illness, relationship problems, or major life changes. Members of support groups often share experiences and advice, which can be helpful just getting to talk with other people who are in the same situation. While not everyone wants or needs support beyond that offered by family and friends, you may find it helpful to turn to others outside your immediate circle. A support group can help you cope better and feel less isolated as you make connections with others facing similar challenges.

Evenglow’s Chaplain is available to meet for personal prayer or pastoral counseling. Please call (815) 844-6131 ext. 267
