Compass is hosting two special events this December to support individuals navigating the holidays while grieving the loss of a loved one. Both the Remembrance Service and the Hope for the Holidays Workshop provide meaningful ways for participants to connect with others, honor those who have passed, and find a sense of healing and community.
The Remembrance Service will be held on December 7 at 3:00 pm at Centreville Methodist Church. This peaceful gathering is an opportunity for attendees to reflect on and honor the memories of loved ones in the presence of others who understand the unique journey of grief.
The Hope for the Holidays Workshop follows on December 10 from 5:00–7:00 pm at Compass. In this supportive workshop, participants will gain tools to cope with grief, find strength, and share experiences in a caring environment. The program is designed to help attendees feel seen and supported, knowing they are not alone in their grief.
These events are spaces of solace and understanding, providing comfort during a season that can be particularly difficult for those experiencing loss. By connecting with others who are on similar paths, participants find hope, healing, and the knowledge that they don’t have to face the holidays alone.
