LOSS OF SPOUSE: BEGINNING EXPERIENCE
From Friday evening through Sunday afternoon, the Beginning Experience program is presented by a team of people who have suffered the loss of a loved one through death, separation or divorce, and are willing to share their own experience to help others. Team members lead participants through a program of presentations, personal private reflection, and small group sharing. A sense of community develops in an atmosphere of care and concern that is a hallmark of each weekend.
Beginning Experience weekends are held three times a year in the Kansas City metro area.
