Hope and Healing
Dealing with Grief and Caring for the Bereaved A Jubilee of Hope Workshop
Sunday, April 27, 2025 | 2pm to 4pm
in Saint Augustine Parish Hall in S. South San Francisco, CA

Grief comes to everyone as a natural response to loss. It can manifest in various ways, including sadness, anger, confusion and even numbness.
Reflecting on our feelings and experiences can help us understand our own grief journey and identity, as well as the support we need.
Come and attend a FREE workshop presented by two great resource speakers who will enlighten us on how we can acknowledge diverse grief experiences, reframe grief as an invisible injury, and develop strategies for Support and Healing.

Life-Giving Wounds Retreat
May 30 - June 1

A Retreat For Adult Children of Divorced/Separated Parents

Dealing with our parents' divorce is not easy but confronting this wound with faith can allow us to find great healing. We hope that you will become part of our supportive community and receive the many graces available through this ministry.

Healing Retreat

Attending the three-day retreat is a great way to start this journey of healing. The retreat focuses on discovering our identity as children of God, although it also focuses on overcoming the effects of parental divorce, forgiving our parents, and connecting with others from this background.

This retreat has something for any adult child of divorce or separation, no matter how much healing you have received or need.

The weekend includes presentations, small group sharing, adoration, spiritual direction, and Mass. This three-day retreat is the centerpiece of this ministry.

Themes covered on the weekend include:

• Finding Our Deepest Identity
• Faith and Our Relationship with God
• Love, Dating, and the Sacrament of Marriage
• Loneliness
• Anger and Anxiety
• False Guilt and Shame
• Forgiveness and Reconciliation
• Family Boundaries
• The Christian Meaning of Suffering
• Healing and the Sacraments of Reconciliation and the Eucharist

And Jesus came and said to them, "All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me. Go therefore and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all that I have commanded you; and lo, I am with you always, to the close of the age."
