The meetings begin with a hymn followed by prayers. We then discuss any current business, e.g. forthcoming Mothers' Union events.

We also hold coffee mornings for funds.
We usually have a speaker at each meeting.

Pastoral care in bereavement

Our bereavement support group was set up some years ago, with a view to giving pastoral support to bereaved families. We are not counsellors, our aim is to befriend a grieving person, by offering support and being along side them in their pain and to be sensitive to their needs. Maybe they just want someone to sit and listen as they unburden themselves. (In listening the bereavement visitor can pick up how the grieving person is coping and if more professional counselling is needed.)

Twice a year a special memorial service is held for those who have lost a loved one in the previous 6 months.

On the first anniversary of the death a prayer card is sent to the bereaved family, to show we have not forgotten them and they will be mentioned in our prayers during that week.

We find our pastoral services given to the bereaved is very much appreciated.
