Bereavement Support

Coffee mornings and pastoral support

The death of someone we love is a devastating experience. We are faced with the painful task of coping with all that bereavement brings and with the challenge of finding a new sense of life and purpose.

All of this takes time – nearly always longer than we think – and help of many kinds may be needed. At St John’s we offer a monthly Bereavement Support Coffee Morning that gathers a group of bereaved people to meet to talk about their experiences and feelings and gain support from each other.

These mornings give the opportunity to share thoughts with other people in a similar situation, which can help combat the feelings of isolation that can come with bereavement. Our Pastoral Team are also always present to offer any pastoral support.
