Gathering of Hope Groups

Our Gathering of Hope are meetings for bereaved families to come together to heal and build community. Grief can be a very isolating process, but finding others who are in the some situation enables us to normalize our grief and find that we are not alone. There are others out there who understand the pain of losing a child.

What to Expect

Each meeting is set up for different grievers. We have some that are specific for Mothers who have experienced pregnancy or infant loss, and some groups will be for Fathers, and some for Grandparents.

From Amy, Shalom's Mom

“Attending the Gathering of Hope truly changed my perspective on grief. The speaker was incredibly knowledgeable and compassionate. I left feeling hopeful, knowing more mothers now have the language to grieve. Thank you, Sarah Chaney, for your heart and for creating such a meaningful, hope-filled event”
