Bereavement
When death steals the lives of our loved ones it leaves us at the start of a journey with neither a map nor a sat nav to guide us. It is a long and lonely journey and while family and friends may be a great support and comfort to us it is often helpful and easier to share our thoughts and feelings with people outside that circle.
The Bereavement Journey®
In October 2026, the bereavement team will be running The Bereavement Journey® an award-winning series of films and discussion that gently guides bereaved adults through the varied ways grief and bereavement can impact, enabling them to process the implications for themselves and discern next steps.
Provided by the charity AtaLoss, and run by churches for their communities, it uniquely offers holistic support including accompanying signposting and a final session on faith questions in bereavement from a Christian perspective. The faith session follows the main material and is optional, making The Bereavement Journey® suitable for people of any faith or none. To find out more about the course visit www.thebereavementjourney.org.
Our next Bereavement Journey® course at KCA will run on Monday mornings from 5th October to 23rd November, meeting weekly from 10am to 12pm in the Belicia Room. Please note that there will be no session on Monday 26th October.
All course materials are provided, and there is no charge to attend. However, prior registration is essential.
