Grief in Every Season: Healing the Heart, Restoring Hope
Presented by Premier Chaplains | Hosted by Angela Parnell
Join Premier Chaplains for a powerful, faith-centered gathering dedicated to acknowledging grief, embracing healing, and restoring hope.
The Kingdom Grief & Healing Summit is a transformative experience designed for individuals and families of all ages who have experienced loss. From the grief of losing a child or loved one to the hidden grief carried by first responders, healthcare professionals, ministry leaders, and those mourning unfulfilled dreams, this summit creates a space where every story matters and every heart deserves support.
Through prayer, worship, meaningful conversations, powerful testimonies, and engaging sessions led by compassionate voices, we will explore the many faces of grief through the lens of faith, community, and healing.
Our summit will include dedicated conversations and experiences for children, teens, young adults, families, and professionals who serve others while carrying their own pain.
The evening will conclude with an impactful, relatable panel featuring younger and urban voices sharing honest conversations about grief, faith, resilience, and restoration.
