GRIEF SUPPORT SESSIONS

We’ve barely made it through Thanksgiving, Christmas and New Years’ Eve. Now the stores are filled with hearts, flowers and candy. All of it in the celebration of the gift of love. February 14th can be a difficult day for those of us who are grieving. And for some it will be the first Valentine’s Day since our precious Valentine died. For us, there is no celebration; there is only grief.

Do something special for yourself and attend our grief support series to begin the 2012 year with a strong attitude to make life good. It is normal to feel confused, forgetful, crazy, lost and alone. It may not feel like it just now, but it does get better……….let us help!

Our first Grief Support Series begins Sunday, Feb. 5 and continues for the next four Sundays, Feb. 12, 19, 26 and March 4 at University Christian Church, 2720 S. University Dr., Fort Worth. (next to TCU) Each session starts at 2:30 pm until 4:30 pm. The group goes to dinner after each session. Such camaraderie in groups allows us to recognize that we are not alone.

Another Grief Support session will start in March. This will be in another location with another Facilitator. More information will be in the March newsletter.

We had a very successful facilitator/greeter/helper training. I know with these special people, WPS will provide a fine Outreach program.

SALT (Seniors and Law Enforcement Together)

Remember we are still collecting cell phones and chargers. These are sent to a company that refurbishes them to function on 911 only for those (especially seniors) who do not have a cell phone. Thank you all who have remembered to give your old phones to us.

POEM

‘Sometimes it Seems’
They’re just away one moment…
And now our hearts all wish it were so,
Another chance for saying all we meant to…
Just one more hug before the letting go.

‘Sometimes it Seems’
They’re still right here beside us,
Our memories are so powerful and clear…
And it’s a comfort knowing that in some ways
Those we loved so much are always near.
