On Saturday, November 15, the Sugar Creek Church of Christ Healing Hearts Ministry held its fourth event of the year, Navigating Grief Around the Holidays. Approximately 15 people were in attendance, and the group focused on matters of the heart under the facilitation of Kelly Taylor. The group shared what it means to have a Heavy Heart, a Steady Heart, a Healing Heart, and a Hopeful Heart.
Refreshments were served, and we ended our event with a balloon release to honor our grief and loss of our special loved ones.Thursday, November 20, 2025

"All There Is" with Anderson Cooper
The new season of All There Is with Anderson Cooper has begun. This week I listened to his interview with film producer Ken Burns. I found so many gems in this interview as I was reminded that we are walking through grief, and it is a gift that cannot be squandered. We will all experience grief, but we must try to transform it into something that can help ourselves or others. You can view this video along with several others by clicking on the links in this post.

Maybe it is the loss of a job, a relationship, a body part, or it could be something else. Join us on November 15 at 10:00 am as we come together to show support for one another.
