Welcome to St. Maximilian Kolbe Catholic Church
Companions on a Journey is a grief support group that is open to
anyone suffering the death of a loved one. The death of a loved one can
feel as though someone has reached into your chest and ripped your heart out.
The feelings that come with grief can cause a person to feel numb, lost, alone,
angry and confused. It helps to know that you are not alone. Sharing
one's grief has helped many to readjust to the new world in which they now must
live - "For someone so loved will never be forgotten."
