Children & Youth Retreat
Saturday, July 22 10am-3pm
St. John of the Cross, Western Springs
This special retreat is for children ages 4-18 who have lost a loved one to suicide. Whether the child’s loss is recent or not, the retreat provides an opportunity for young grievers to come together and meet others who have experienced a similar tragedy. Children will have the opportunity to share their stories and benefit from various modalities of grief expression including music, crafts, dance-movement, yoga, art and writing. Experienced child therapists will be present to lead all activities.
The event is free of charge and will include lunch.
Please call Jessica Mead to inquire or to register your children.
