Borek- Jennings forming weekly grief support group

Borek Jennings Funeral Home Legacy Event Center on Duncan Street.

Borek Jennings, Manchester’s funeral home, is working with the Brooklyn Living Center to host an eight-week grief education and support group on Tuesdays, from 6:30 to 8 pm beginning August 30 and continuing to October 18, 2016. This support group is free and open to adults dealing with grief due to the death of a loved one. Participants will receive a copy of “Understanding Your Grief” by Dr. Alan Wolfelt.

The group will meet at the Brooklyn Living Center, 151 Constitution, Brooklyn, Michigan. Weekly sessions will begin with discussion about aspects of grief & healing from the book followed by small group participation led by trained facilitators. Each person will be placed in a small group with others who have experienced similar losses. To register or for more information call Diane at 517/592-2280 or Amy at 517/592-2828.

For as little as $1 a month, you can keep Manchester-focused news coverage alive.
