Grieving Suicide

​

April 13, 2024

​

​
The unexpected tragic loss of a loved one due to suicide transforms the lives of families, friends and the larger community.  Lives are changed forever in a way that others do not experience.

An important point to remember is that the person who has died has found everlasting peace in God’s loving arms. 

We will be gathering at the Redemptorist Retreat Center to offer support and take time for prayer for those who have died and those facing the challenge of losing them.

Using the Beautiful natural setting of the retreat center your spirit will be renewed and refreshed. 
Please join us as we pray, reflect, and share together.
