Healing from loss is a journey.

Everyone experiences grief differently. There's no "right way" to grieve. Are you feeling angry or full of regret? Are you depressed and wondering how to heal? Do you walk around in a mental fog? All this is normal. And while your grief journey is unique, you'll find many grieving people are facing the same struggles. And others who've gone before you can help.

Grief cannot be rushed. You may wish to bypass the problematic emotions or push down the pain. Or maybe others are pressuring you to "get up and move on." But healing from grief and loss requires you to go through your grief. We have resources that can help you find relief and stability.

Finding support is crucial. Grief is a journey that shouldn't be traveled alone. You may feel like no one understands and be tempted to isolate, but as counselor David Bueno Martin says, "Healing happens in the context of finding others who can help you." A GriefShare group is a safe place to find support. The group meets for 13 weeks and provides a Workbook.

We will work together to form an outreach project for women in our local hospitals going through miscarriage.

Healing women heal women!

While often overlooked, the Book of Jude remains as relevant today as when it was written. God has commanded His beloved church to contend for the faith in a world of unbelief, and as we do, He will keep us from falling into the same deception.

In this seven-session study from Jackie Hill Perry, you will explore themes of being called, loved, and kept and learn how to point others to Jesus in grace and truth. We serve others well when we share the whole gospel with them, not just the parts deemed attractive by our culture.

We live in freedom together, having completed the life-transforming freedom group at Valley. We will meet monthly for dinner, fellowship, and good times!

Join us in building a community of thriving women walking forward with faith and resilience.
