Understanding and Help as You Grieve
At Agape, we understand the challenges facing those who are grieving. We are sorry for your loss, and we are here to help. A part of the hospice benefit, support from our Bereavement Team is available at no charge (and open to anyone in our community who is grieving, even if care was not provided by Agape).
Our support includes:
- Short-term grief counseling
- Phone calls with bereavement counselors
- Grief support groups
- Educational material
- Memorial services and grief workshops
- In-Services for nursing facilities or other groups.
Everyone experiences grief differently, yet finding understanding and support from others may help ease the burden. To learn more about Agape Grief Support, call 720-482-1988.
Agape holds memorial services for family, friends and our team to come together and honor those who were in our care. We held our Fall 2021 virtual service in October. Please check back for the date and format of our Spring service after the first of the year.
New Hope Presbyterian Church hosts this four-week video series (with Agape's Karrie Filios) and offers four meditations you may find helpful in your journey. You can find the series and meditations on their site by clicking below. Wishing you peace in this season.
