St. Elizabeth and St. Jules will be sponsoring a divorce support group called DivorceCare. There will be 13 sessions covering various topics. This support group is open to anyone in our area.

Suffering is a part of life, but you don’t have to go through it alone. At the Ascension, Jesus said, “I am with you always.” Come and join us for our first meeting.

Please call Norma Blanchard at (225) 229-7942

DivorceCare Dates: Last Wednesday of every month at 6:00 P.M. at the Mt. Carmel Building on the side of the St. Elizabeth Church.
 

Grief makes it hard to feel optimistic about the future. If you have experienced the loss of a spouse, child, family member, or friend, it may seem to you that no one understands the deep hurt and loss that you feel. The stages of grief have no set limits of time. It can be a confusing time when you feel isolated and have questions about things that you have never experienced before.

If you are in need of support in facing these challenges and move forward in rebuilding your life, GriefShare may be for you. Ministers for Christ (formerly Stephen Ministry) at St. Elizabeth/St. Jules Parish will be offering a 13 week series of seminars that may help you. GriefShare groups meet weekly to help you face these challenges and move toward rebuilding your life. Each GriefShare session has three distinct elements in each meeting:

• Video seminar
• Support group discussion with focus
• Personal study and reflection
