Lunch and Learn: Ron Greer

Join us for Lunch and Learn, a monthly gathering to hear from different speakers over a meal. Each month features a new speaker who will share insights on a variety of topics, followed by an open conversation. It’s a great opportunity to connect with others, learn something new, and enjoy a shared meal. Whether you’re a regular attendee or new to our community, all are welcome to come, listen, and share.

In October, come meet Ron Greer, the Director of the Pastoral Counseling Service at Peachtree Road Methodist Church in Atlanta. He will lead us through a workshop that will focus on two dimensions of the experience of grief and loss – the painful journey through the valley of personal mourning, and then into the new chapter of our lives we slowly begin to define. Then for the second half of our time together, we will turn to how we can best support others following the loss of someone who meant the world to them.   

Lunch is $12
