Living Sanctuary Support Groups

We are intending to run peer Support Groups at Blackwood Christian Community Centre. Although we are a Christian Organisation, the Support Groups are open to the whole community. Whatever path you are walking, you don’t have to walk alone.

The Support Group sessions at Living Sanctuary run for 12 weeks. We respect the confidentiality of all those attending, so that a safe environment is in place for people to share, learn, heal and find hope. There are at least two facilitators for each group, and a possibility of individual help is available if required.

We will be starting two new groups in the New Year. Times and dates can be obtained from the church office.

Bereavement
This group is for all those who have experienced the loss of a loved one. It offers a safe place to share experiences, and explore areas such as grief, loss and anger as well as hope for the future.

Divorce/Separation
This group is for people who are separated or divorced. You will be able to share with other people who understand what you are going through, as well as access valuable information about ways to heal from the hurt of separation or divorce.

Please be aware that our Support Groups are not therapy groups. The facilitators are trained in leading Support Groups, but are not functioning as counsellors or professionally qualified therapists.
