This bereavement pack is designed to help those preparing to accompany someone on the long and difficult path of grief. The guide will equip pastors, chaplains, friends and others with advice on how to care for someone suffering a bereavement answering questions such as 'What should I do?', 'What should I say?' and 'What would help most?'.
The encouragement is to simply be a friend, to care, to listen, to 'be there', to accept, to know when to speak and when not to. The booklet for the bereaved person is beautifully illustrated in full-colour. Subjects such as being kind to yourself, facing everyday life and the 'process' of grief are all outlined and explained with understanding and sensitivity. On each page, quotes and Bible verses gently offer encouragement and hope for the journey ahead. 'Top up' bundles of five copies of 'The Path Not Chosen' are available to replenish your pack.
