Church sponsor


Pond's Griefshare program welcomes anyone that has lost someone significant in their life and is looking for a loving support group that can help them through their grief journey. We provide a safe place to share your feelings about your loss with others that can empathize with your loss without judgement. Pond's church is a welcoming and affirming church community that believes that God loves all people.

To get to the meeting room, park in the rear of the church next to Chase Bank and enter through the lower staircase. Turn left and follow the signs to the room. Should you require use of the elevator, please call ahead (before 4 pm on meeting day) so that the elevator is turned on for your use. To use the elevator you must drive around to the entrance off of Oak Street and park along the fence bordering the adjacent property and the entrance to the elevator should be under the spotlight.
