GriefShare
6:30 pm – 8:30 pm
GriefShare is a friendly, caring group of people who will walk alongside you through one of life’s most difficult experiences. You don’t have to go through the grieving process alone.
It may be hard for you to feel optimistic about the future right now. If you’ve lost a spouse, child, family member, or friend, you’ve probably found there are not many people who understand the deep hurt you feel.
This can be a confusing time when you feel isolated and have many questions about things you’ve never faced before.
GriefShare groups meet weekly to help you face these challenges and move toward rebuilding your life. Each GriefShare session has three distinct elements:

Video seminar with experts
Support group discussion with focus
Personal study and reflection

Registration of $20 is required for this 13-week course. Space is limited.
Target Audience: Those who have lost a loved one.

Jesus undoubtedly is the greatest leader in the history of the world. During His lifetime He taught principles and concepts that are as effective today as they were 2,000 years ago. And if we learn and apply these, we will rise above the methods of this world and be a success for the glory of the Lord; in our homes, workplaces, and everywhere we go. The Life & Teachings of Jesus Christ is an in-depth study of what Jesus said, what He did, and where He went.

2026-02-17 19:00 - 21:00, 2026-02-24 19:00 - 21:00 | North Cities, 502 Belt Line Rd, Garland, TX, 75040, United States
There were approximately 100 prophecies given before the first coming of Jesus to the earth. He fulfilled every single one of those prophecies to the minutest detail. No one should have missed His first coming—but most people did because they didn’t know the prophecies. Today we are living just before the Second Coming of Jesus to the earth. We don’t have 100 prophecies; we have closer to 1,000 yet the scriptures tell us that most people will miss the Second Coming. Again, this will happen because people do not know the prophecies. This Understanding the End Time series was designed to explain the prophecies of the end time in easy-to-understand terms. After viewing Understanding the End Time no one should miss the Second Coming of Jesus Christ.
