There will be days when your grief is deep and consuming, dark and lonely. 

We hope you find refuge in supportive friends, family, and counselors on the days when you most need someone to sit beside you in that darkness. 

There will be days when your grief is a bit more subtle with buzzing in the background instead of being center stage. 

We hope you don’t feel guilty for the days when this allows you to feel joy or hope. These days are so deeply important as you move forward at your own pace. 

There will be days when your grief turns on a dime, demanding different things from you moment to moment, giving you emotional whiplash as you try and keep up. 

We hope you are gentle with yourself on these days. Your heart is looking for ways to process a love that has changed due to loss (a love that is still present, but in a different way). That is a lot of work on a weary soul. 

There will be days when your grief softens enough to allow your mind to wander in memories, to rejoice in remembering, to allow the light to trickle in to the most painful spaces. 

And on those days, we hope you let the comfort wrap around you like a warm sweater. We hope you let the light in and feel it surrounding you.

Because grief will bring about many different kinds of days. 

May we take all these days one moment, one breath at a time.

A few photos of our recent Healing Hearts Soiree and some powerful words from one of the guests🧡

“I have attended many galas over the years and none of them have been comparable to what I witnessed and felt at yours. The guests of honor who spoke nearly took my breath away.  They were so honest about their heartache and how The Grief Club has guided them in their pain. It was clear that they really feel cared about. Until they spoke I never really understood the depth of work that you do.  It really is life changing for those that you counsel. I am honored to have been present and am grateful that your organization exists for families who are grieving.  You will always have my support.”

The Grief Club of Minnesota is for families, young kids and teens who have lost a parent or loved one and are dealing with grief.

When I was 20, my dad passed away of a sudden heart attack. Dealing with grief is something I’m still dealing with. So that, combined with the fact that I’m so proud of my mom making it into a positive, and joining the Club, becoming a part of the board of directors, and working with the Club, is why I chose this cause.
