One of the hardest things to come to grips with after losing someone dear to us is to learn how to enjoy life again to the full. For example, how to celebrate special events like holidays and family occasions with confidence and joy.

Having the support of others who have suffered loss and are learning how to cope can be very helpful. Transitions is a ministry for those who are in "transition". Parishioners who have lost a loved one -- spouse, parent, child, or dear friend and desire to share feelings memories, struggles and insights gained along the way are all welcome whether this loss is recent or years ago.
