Dogwood Church in Tyrone will offer GriefShare – Surviving the Holidays, a seminar, Wednesday, Nov. 20, from 7-9 p.m. The group will meet in the Atrium area of the church office. The video presentation will offer suggestions on how to handle hard-hitting emotions during the holiday season, what to do about family traditions, how to scale back on activities and holiday preparations, and where to find the strength to go on.

“I learned that it’s okay not to carry on every tradition, and it’s okay to cut back on invitations,” shared a seminar attendee.
