Bereavement

Loss needs to be processed for our physical and mental health and wellbeing. Unresolved grief can also affect our attitudes, relationships and attainment. The Bereavement Journey® is a place to talk - 7 Sessions of films and discussion for anyone, whether grieving a death now, or wanting to explore a previous bereavement that may be unresolved.  This course is for bereaved adults to do their own grief work.  It is supported by a Guest Manual and facilitated by volunteers. 

Attendance is recommended for all the Sessions, although it is possible to join at Session 2.  It is most beneficial to attend at least a few weeks after the death - ideally after the funeral, but this is not essential and The Bereavement Journey can benefit those in anticipatory grief, also pregnancy loss.

Topics include:
• Attachment, separation and loss
• The pain and responses of grief
• Anger and guilt
• Coping with others’ reactions
• Delayed and suppressed grief
• Adjusting to change
• Moving forward healthily

Faith is reserved for the final, 7th session on Faith Questions in Bereavement, which is optional, making the course suitable for anyone of any faith or none.

The Bereavement Journey is being offered by churches and Christian organisations across the UK and the world. Ideally Guests attend a course in their local area. This page is for booking the Midsomer Norton course and is open to people in that area.  If you are based elsewhere, please visit the locations page on www.thebereavementjourney.org/locations before booking, to see whether there is a course nearer that would suit you.  If there isn’t please use the link at the top of the same page for the national online course.

We ask people [from outside the UK or] who are wishing to run or learn more about The Bereavement Journey not to register as Guests, but to email info@thebereavementjourney.org for course involvement opportunities and training.

For other bereavement support services and information visit AtaLoss.org and Care4thefamily

We’re engaged in local and global mission, and passionately believe that every person has a part to play. We follow Christian Bible teaching, believing it’s through a loving relationship with Jesus Christ that we can experience life in its fullest and have the security of knowing we’ll live forever with God.

We’re part of the local Baptist Association and we are members of the Evangelical Alliance, and regularly connect with the local Churches in our area for prayer and community outreach.

What is our vision?

We are a Church with a clear vision. It's sourced in the Bible and expressed in these simples phrases:

Coming up images
The 'how' we do these things is a bigger story and one you can learn about by checking out other pages on our site. God has called each of us to be a part of His mission in this life, full of purpose, and confident as His sons and daughters. It's a vision we would love for you to explore with us. Church is not just about Sundays, and we aim to see our faith in Jesus impact every part of our lives, and those around us.
