About Seasons of Hope
If you have experienced the death of a loved one and are searching for meaning and consolation, we invite you to join a Seasons of Hope group here at the St. John-St. Paul Collaborative. Seasons of Hope is a Christ-centered group where we will be able to share and learn from each other as we walk together in faith on our unique journey of grief.
Our Lord assured us that those who mourn are blessed, and that they shall be comforted. Seasons of Hope helps us come together to share in God’s love. With the support of our faith community, we give voice to our unique journeys of grief and find healing and spiritual growth.
The sessions help explore mourning through scripture, prayer, reflection activities and faith sharing. Seasons of Hope is centered on Jesus Christ and grounded in the healing wisdom, traditions, and practices of the Catholic Church. For you who are searching for Our Lord in the midst of your grief, Seasons of Hope is a nurturing link to the Church, the Almighty, and people of faith who truly understand what it means to be brokenhearted.
Seasons of Hope has four different seasons that offer Christ-centered material that benefit new and ongoing participants alike. Some find that one season is just what is needed to discover the consolation of Christ in the midst of their grieving. Many come to all four seasons. Come as you are able, and share in the healing message of Christ’s resurrection for us.
If you have any questions, or would like more information, please email Kelly Meraw, Director of Pastoral Care and Liturgy, or Sister Colleen Gibson, Pastoral Care Coordinator.
