Joy in the journey
We’ve heard there are stages to grief...
Ever wonder what they are?
Not everyone grieves the same...
Learn about the value of community in healing.
It’s natural to avoid the process...
We’ve lightened the load by adding beauty and fun to the conversation.

The Heart of Grief
Retreat Facilitator & Art Instructor
I’ve worked with glass since 1985 and often thought about the correlation between
people and glass. We are beautiful and colorful, but we can be broken and fragile too.
When Cherie Evans shared with me that God put it on her heart to start a grief ministry,
I immediately knew this was something I could be involved with. It felt like my life’s work as a glass artist found its purpose.
This retreat is the culmination of thoughts on the stained glass process that reflects
us as people going from brokenness to beauty and the wisdom of Christ following counselors.
Our time together includes 6 hours of stained glass instruction in which we will be
creating something lovely!
