MISSION STATEMENT

Surviving From Loss provides connection, community, and resources for the emotional, physical, and spiritual needs of the widowed. Through acts of service, we help restore dignity, renew purpose, and end isolation where a spouse once served. Guided by the Gospel, we strive to ensure no one journeys through loss alone.

WE SUPPORT THE WIDOWED AS THEY NAVIGATE LIFE IN THEIR EVER CHANGING WORLD

A Few Highlights from Today’s Bunco & BBQ

Below are just a few of the photos from today’s wonderful Bunco and BBQ gathering. More pictures will be posted soon, so be sure to check back to see all the fun, laughter, and fellowship we shared together.

A special thank you to Joni Glover for organizing such a great event and to Janice Knight for her Bunco expertise in leading the games. We are also grateful to Susan Jennings for the beautiful (and delicious!) birthday cake that helped us celebrate all of our March birthdays.

It was a joyful afternoon with friends, and we look forward to sharing more photos with you soon!
