Processing Loss to Experience Joy: Lament Workshop
The Bible says, "Weeping may endure for a night, But joy comes in the morning." (Psalm 30:5, NKJV) To prepare our hearts to experience future joy, we must take time to lament and grieve our losses.

In this workshop, Jeri leads us through a process of lament following the model given us in the Psalms. Beginning with honest complaint she walks us through an authentic and God-honoring way to process pain and loss. Participants will have the opportunity to write their own lament during the workshop and will leave with a helpful resource.
We all endure losses in life. Jeri learned about lament during a season when she was processing job loss, her mother's terminal illness and the losses of COVID. She developed this talk to help others process big and small losses with the Lord and reconnect with Him in distressing times through prayer. Some workshop participants have taken what they have learned and helped others. See jerihowe.com for more info.
