Welcome to Our Lady of Sorrows Bereavement course:

Picture

7 Marian Modules

This class includes 7 Marian modules based on  Seven Sorrows of Mary
I wrote a book on Bereavement called "Hope Thru Sorrow" this book will be included if choosing with book option.
The Joyce Rupp Sorrow book is optional - you can ask us for link if you wish to read.
My book is the only one we can include* - you will need to purchase other books listed in other columns - you can possibly get digital versions on Amazon or Nook Barnes and Noble.
Thank you.
*Note my book will take up to 3 weeks to get to you - I can send digital version if doing live training and that way you have access during the class.

Understanding Grief Book: Stepping Stones to Grief by Alan Wolfelt Required book

This book is a general book on grief so it can be used also for anyone who has lost a loved one. It goes over some misconceptions of grief to understanding grief better and to know that there is not always a rhythm  or order to grief (some other books try to make things in a particular order).
There is one journaling book 
"Grieving the Child You Never Knew"   that we had included in the past - but I am making all of that extra credit as we do not have a way to get that book free anymore.

Live Training for May-June - we hope to start a training in mid-May - contact us at catholicdoulaprogram@gmail.com for details. Most likely meet on Mondays or Tuesdays - though to be determined. Thanks. Start date May 16-17.
