Designed for each generation from children, youth, young and mature adults to seniors, Abyssinian’s ministries seek to address the varied needs of our diverse congregation.

“If anyone serves me, the Father will honor him.”

—John 12:16

Good Grief (Grief & Bereavement)

This ministry facilitates dialogue and explores issues of experienced and anticipatory loss. A bio-psychosocial approach is used to address issues of anticipating the death of a loved one or with those who have already experienced the death of a loved one. The role of spirituality and one’s relationship with God in the bereavement and grief process is discussed. Participants meet regularly and engage in on-going discussion regarding how loss is dealt with emotionally, socially, mentally, and spiritually.
