Circle of Care begins Oct. 13

Warner Funeral Home in Spencer is again sponsoring Circle of Care, a six-week grief recovery support group for people grieving the death of a loved one.

Each week the group will examine a different grief-related topic in a non-threatening setting where participants are encouraged but not forced to share their feelings and, in turn, receive support from others in attendance.

Circle of Care will begin meeting Thursday, Oct. 13, at 6:30 p.m. at the Spencer Area Activity Center (Senior Center), located at 104 East Fourth Street in Spencer.

For more information about the group, please call Diane Sparks at Warner Funeral Home, (712) 262-3640.
