GriefShare's Digital Workbooks: A Global Solution for Grief Support
GriefShare Launches Digital Resources for Global Accessibility
GriefShare is taking a revolutionary step by removing barriers that hinder access to essential grief support resources. Recently, the organization has introduced digital GriefShare Participant Guide workbooks specifically designed for international churches, expanding their outreach capabilities. This innovative approach ensures that Christ-centered grief support is available to individuals and congregations beyond national borders, effectively addressing challenges tied to high costs and shipping delays.
Breaking Barriers for Global Churches
According to Sam Hodges, president of Church Initiative—which created GriefShare—there has been a significant interest from global churches wanting to implement GriefShare programs. However, logistical hurdles, such as expensive shipping costs and delays, posed a considerable obstacle in their endeavors. The introduction of digital workbooks is a timely solution, allowing churches around the world to access crucial materials quickly and affordably. With this new format, churches can foster an environment of empathy and support during critical times for grieving individuals.
The Impact of GriefShare
GriefShare has a rich history of over 25 years, during which it has consistently provided hope and healing to those coping with loss. The organization draws on a wealth of experience, combining insights from pastors, counselors, and real-life stories from bereaved individuals. With over 28,000 churches utilizing GriefShare resources and more than 1 million participants benefiting from its programs, it has established itself as a trustworthy name in grief support.
The GriefShare workbook is structured to guide individuals through the complex emotional, relational, and spiritual challenges they face after losing a loved one. It consists of 13 sessions filled with practical guidance and encouragement, ensuring that every participant receives essential support during their journey.
Digital Access: A Step Forward
The GriefShare kit now offers digital access, allowing churches outside of the U.S. to obtain the Leader's Guide and enabling participants to download the Participant Guide via platforms like Apple Books and Google Play. This advancement not only simplifies access to vital resources but also makes participating in GriefShare programs more convenient than ever before.
