Dear SG Family,
Over the past several weeks since announcing and beginning preparations for the 2009 Silent Grief Retreat, I've had many people email me saying how much they would love to attend, but due to things such a job loss, gas prices, travel costs, and the economy in general, they would not be able to attend. While this news is disheartening, it is also a fact of the state of our economy right now.
With this in mind, Jimmy, Natalie, and I have made the hard decision to postpone the Grief Retreat until a later date when the economy is more stable.
Please continue to pray about this, and continue to use the many different resources that I have listed as part of your daily support through child loss:
www.silentgrief.com - please use the articles
www.silentgrief.com - please register for "Hope for the Day", use the daily thought, and healing Scripture
www.clarahinton.com - please sign up for the weekly email
www.flickr.com/photos/sicilianitaliano/ - a daily healing photo is posted along with a healing thought
www.clara-hinton.blogspot.com/ - "A Healing Place" thoughts are posted daily - you can respond
www.opentohope.com - look for healing articles - Clara Hinton is a contributing author
And, if you don't have a copy of the book "Silent Grief" by Clara Hinton, please get a copy. It will help you in your grief journey.
All of these helps are made available to you as I strive to continue to give you different ways to help encourage you in your walk through grief. Please use these resources, and pass on the word to others.
May each and every one who visits this place called "Silent Grief" be given a support system that will help you grow and bond as you walk this most difficult path of pain.
Love,
Clara
