Getting through the holidays after a loss is difficult at best. But having a plan and thinking ahead about what you need in light of your mourning is an important step in successfully negotiating the season. A workshop at 6:30 p.m. Monday, November 6, in Room 107 of the Parish Life Building will offer counsel for those dealing with grief and loss during the holidays. Details: Rev. Bill Roth at 704-295-4835 or broth@mpumc.org.
