Joy Seekers returns

Following a winter break, Joy Seekers grief support group will reconvene Thursday, April 9, from 10:00 to 11:00 a.m. at the Rock Port United Methodist Church. The group meets the second Thursday of each month led by Dianna Carpenter, and is open to anyone who has experienced the loss of a loved one.

In addition to regular meetings, guest speakers are featured periodically, and occasional excursions are also enjoyed. Past outings have included Lauritzen Gardens in Council Bluffs, Iowa, and the Southeast Nebraska Cancer Memorial Gardens in Humboldt, Nebraska. Joy Seekers provides a confidential, empathetic environment for bereaved individuals to share their experiences and challenges, while fostering comfort and hope to navigate grief. It seeks to improve well-being through fellowship, fun, and faith. Grief shared is grief divided. Joy Seekers looks forward to seeing you!
