Grief Recovery Program

Too costly in the eyes of the Lord is the death of his faithful.
Psm 116:15

For those mourning the death of a loved one, St. Thomas Aquinas parish offers a nine-week Grief Recovery Program, twice yearly, in a group format. There are duplicate sessions scheduled for both mornings and evenings during the nine consecutive weeks. Each session lasts two hours.

Blessed are they who mourn, for they shall be comforted.

Divorce Recovery Program

Not all grief comes from the death of someone dear. Divorce also brings loss, sadness and pain. STA offers a nine week divorce recovery program, three times a year, facilitated by a leader who has experienced the trauma of a broken marriage.
