A Message From Stephen Ministries

This holiday season, offer the gift of

remembering to those who are grieving.

     1. This begins with being willing to say the loved             one's name. 

    2. Be ready to listen to the grieving person's                          memories. Give them space to express their love          for the deceased, feel closer to their loved one,                  and experience comfort.

    3. Embrace their every emotion.  Set aside your                 discomfort and focus on being present with the            other person. Instead of thinking you have to                say just the right thing; bring comfort to them              by listening to, accepting, and validating a                      grieving person's emotions.
