MISSION STATEMENT – Mothers Finding Meaning Again is a support group for any woman who has lost a child. Our purpose is to comfort bereaved mothers. We offer compassion, conversation, validation, support, spiritual solace and ongoing friendship to each other.
PURPOSE – At our meetings, and our other gatherings, no mother ever has to explain why she is suffering or justify why she cannot “move on.” We all know why – no mother ever “moves on” but rather learns “to accept” the death of her child. We also know our sorrow keeps our communion open with our beloved deceased children. But in the meanwhile, we will grieve, hope and find some joy together with one another.
DETAILS – We meet monthly in the Western Philadelphia, PA suburbs on the fourth Wednesday from 7:00 p.m. to 9:00 p.m. The meeting place changes from month-to-month with the members sharing their own homes. We all bring a little snack. There is no charge. For further information please contact Mary Jane Hurley Brant, M.S., CGP, Founder, at maryjanebrant@gmail.com or Joan Garbutt, President, at jcggar@aol.com or Terry Griffin, Vice-President, at teresagriffin07@aol.com.
We welcome you. Don’t be alone on this journey; we are here for you.
"Making the decision to have a child is momentous. It is to decide forever to have your heart go walking around outside your body."
