Have you recently lost a loved one?  Are you struggling with grief or feel the need for spiritual or physical support?  Our Parish has established a Grief Support Ministry.  If you feel these needs, please contact Gretchen Sayward at pothe@portlanddiocese.org

We welcome anyone interested in helping us carry out this ministry.  If you have "been there," you know the need.  You can turn your grief experience into a gift you give to others.  Contact Gretchen using the link above.  

This past year, members of the Grief Support Ministry spent time attending conferences, reading, and working with those of other parishes who have launched grief support programs. After much study and prayer, we opted for a casual format in which our parishioners could share their stories and concerns. We invite those who have experienced loss of any type to our meetings, where we offer comfort, support and the hope of gentle healing to come. We look forward to welcoming you at our meetings which are held  every first and third Thursday of the month at Sacred Heart Rectory / Conference Room at 6:00 pm.
Peace, Gretchen Sayward, Catherine Gentile, Solange LeBorgne, Christina Ladd, and Jackie Royles
