To lose someone dear to us through death, divorce or separation is the hardest thing we are likely to have to bear.  Grieving is the most normal part of loss and is often accompanied by strong emotions.  The depth of these emotions may frighten people and it may be helpful for you to understand that it is normal to feel some or all of the following: Fear, helplessness, guilt, anger, despair, loneliness and to recall memories.

We would like to offer our sincere sympathies at this sad time.

Your parish offers help by way of a Bereavement Support Team.  You are most welcome to call in a team member if you feel it would help you to do so.

Should you feel the need to talk to someone following a recent loss, please telephone the presbytery on 01270 212533 and leave your contact details.  A representative from the Parish Bereavement Support Team will contact you.

From your Bereavement Support Team at St. Mary's.
