Providing Hope and Healing for Grievers
Why A Sanctuary?
We have been serving the grieving community for almost 7 years. We have seen hope and healing restored where a spirit of grief was overshadowing the progress of living a healthy life. As we have served these remarkable people, we have seen a need to have a place where people can come for 3-5 days for Grief/Trauma Coaching and Mediation, equipping them with tools, strategies, and resources to manage their grief.
One may ask, “Why does there need to be a place?”
When a child passes, color leaves. We know it is important to have grievers in a place to introduce color back into their world. Quite often individuals are living in the house where the sibling or child had been residing. There are so many triggers around them it makes it difficult for them to breathe and process. Unfortunately, some of these individuals found their children in their homes due to a suicide and/or overdose. We have seen getting the individuals away from their environment helps to promote and foster healing.
The purpose for The Sanctuary:
The Sanctuary will have coaching available -both individually and as a family - and will offer the opportunity to work on family relational dynamics. The goal is to equip attendees with tools, skills, and resources to manage their grief in healthy ways and prevent the family from fraying apart.

What You’ll Experience
What moves through us is a silence, a quiet silence, a longing for one more day, one more word, one more touch. We may not understand why you left the earth so soon, or why you left before we were ready to say good-bye. But, little by little, we begin to remember not just that you died, but that you LIVED. And, that YOUR life gave us memories too beautiful to forget...”
