Annual
Interactive Weekend

The Widowed
Friends annual interactive weekend is held each spring. The weekend
includes guest speakers who present topics and tools pertaining to healing and
personal growth for widows and widowers at any stage of bereavement. Social interactions
and prayer make this a
meaningful time for all who attend.
Comments from the 2008 weekend:
"I appreciated everyone's candor and
honesty. As I leave, I look at everyone with different eyes."
"Beneficial to affirm our feelings...reassure us that we are okay.
Received tips and ideas from each other."
"It was great to have
experts speaking to us and peer help in the small groups -- a great
combination."
"This
weekend was a great experience for me as I was able to share my feelings
with everyone who knew exactly how I was feeling. Reality!"
"The (small group) facilitators wee extremely helpful and good at focusing
attention on specific needs."
"I was touched at how much the committee members truly want to help others
through this difficult time of transition and healing."
"The whole experience was great."
Our next interactive weekend,
"Rebuilding Your Future", will be held
on Saturday, March 28 through Sunday, March 29, 2009 at The Retreat Center at St.John's in Plymouth,
Michigan.
