7TH ANNUAL LIGHTS OF HOPE

DECEMBER 9TH, 2023

4:30PM TO 6:30PM

LIGHTS OF HOPE..."Our 7th Annual Lights of Hope, December 9th, 2023 is an evening of remembrance for the entire family. We come together to decorate and display luminaries in remembrance of our loved ones. With your generous donations we raise nearly 40% of our annual mission expenses, supporting those grieving. We look forward to sharing this very special time with you."

The Community Grief Center, with its trained professionals and trained volunteer staff will come along side and support the bereaved in our community. Our vision is to support children, youth and adults as they walk through their unique journey of grieving the death of a loved one, to offer them hope and healing for their future and to provide education to the community and professionals through seminars and online resources.

PLEASE NOTE: We are a volunteer-based organization and, therefore, we do not operate on a normal business schedule; however, we do our best to have volunteers at our front desk Monday thru Thursday - 10am to 3pm. If you call, please leave a voicemail message as we check and return messages regularly. If you are interested in serving as a volunteer click here for more information.

The Community Grief Center is a very safe place to express my emotions.
I am feeling more balanced about coping with my loss.

I learned through this group that I am not alone, and will be O.K. I was
happy to be a part of it; it helped a lot.

“We cannot avoid suffering but we can choose how to cope with it,
find meaning in it, and move forward with renewed purpose.”

The most valuable part of this group was to be able to share the same
pain with others and learn from them. The group is a safe and sacred
unity of people caring for each other.

This group was an encouraging experience that changed the way I think
and feel. It's a sorrow so great, and it is O.K. to give your sorrow
words! This was an amazing experience to help on a journey of finding
hope.
