April Pulpit+ Exchange “Grieving the Loss of the World We Knew or Imagined” with Rev. Dr. Jamie Eaddy

About the Event

In a time of deep uncertainty, political upheaval, and global crisis, many are grieving not just personal losses but the world they once knew or thought possible. Grief is more than a fleeting emotion; it is an ongoing process of navigating loss, change, and transition. Led by Rev. Dr. Jamie Eaddy, a thanatologist and grief doula, this program explores the collective sorrow of a shifting world and invites participants to engage grief as a pathway to transformation, resilience, and prophetic action.

As a thanatologist and grief doula, Dr. Eaddy is dedicated to guiding individuals and communities through life’s most challenging transitions, including grief, trauma, and loss.
