Time to Altar Grief with Emma Curtis

Time to Altar Grief with Emma Curtis

Time to Altar Grief is a healing altar for everyone, 'whatever you believe in' created by Emma Curtis, Minister 'without religion' and grief specialist.

Bring a picture of someone you miss and create a beautiful memorial card that will become part of an ongoing, secular altar, honouring your loved one in a community memorial. As we place our cards within the growing altar-for-all, our grief is altered.

An altar creates change.  As we honour our loss, we feel also the sweetness of our memories. Emotions need motion. The process of creating a memorial and speaking our loved one’s name is precious and healing. 

In the words of Terry Pratchett: "A man is not dead while his name is still spoken.”
