This week I went on a wonderful adventure outside the boarders of Benton County. I was invited by the incredibly gifted Pastoral Minister, Greg Spoffard, who serves at Sacred Heart Catholic Church in Sauk Rapids, to speak at a BeFrienders meeting in Brainerd. I had heard of BeFrienders before but wasn't quite sure what was all involved in their ministry. One of the great things BeFrienders do is walk alongside someone who has lost a loved one. It was a privilege for me to share with them a presentation on the 'Journey of Grief'. Even more of a privilege was to hear their personal stories and the insight they took away from the presentation. An added bonus for the evening was enjoying dinner with Greg and a new friend at the Northwind Grille in Brainerd! If you are ever in the area, I would recommend stopping for a taste of their homemade meals!
