BEYOND THE BROKEN HEART by Julie Yarbrough Thursdays, September 12-November 21 10-11:30AM, Chapel Parlor Registration: vpc.church/care Cost: $12 for book Facilitator: Pastor David Turner Beyond the Broken Heart is a seven-week ministry course for those who are grieving the loss of a loved one. We grieve because we love, and the deeper the love, the greater our grief feels. In the face of that grief, we give thanks for having loved so deeply. In our grief we have a story to tell; a story that's important because it's our story. A story that tells others about the moment in your life when your world changed. Join with others traveling the similar path to find support, encouragement, and to experience personal and spiritual growth through the healing power of God's presence.
