HEALING HEARTS is a Catholic Grief outreach to those who have suffered the loss of a loved one in the recent past (1-3 years).  Meeting monthly in “the Chapel @ La Verna”  we will practice shared prayer and ritual as we seek a deeper meaning through the confidential sharing of our individual journeys of grief and loss. Healing Hearts will be limited to 8 participants so that we may preserve each participant’s sense of trust and intimacy. We will conclude with a light social following each gathering, and from time to time celebrate Mass together.

Facilitators: Bro Alan Gaebel, ofm, cap. Susan Jones

HEALING HEARTS initial meeting will be on Wednesday, 29 April, 2026, 7:00 pm - 9:00 pm

For further details or to register, call La Verna at 705.243.9131 or email: laverna@capuchins.ca
