    Description

    SoulShare companion

    As a SoulShare Grief companion, volunteers use curriculum to guide discussions and activities that help children acknowledge the variety of changes that come with loss and the emotions they may feel with each. Some lessons include crafts, and some may include activities depending on the topic.

    Training is provided free August 24 and 31.

    No experience required, but facilitators should be comfortable guiding faith-based discussion. The program is not theological, but we invite Christ to heal the pain children feel after loss.
