Observing Birthdays and Anniversaries — A Family Grief Video

Over the last few weeks we have honored the anniversaries of birth-days and death-days of many people we care about. We know there are more to come.

We don’t get too caught up in those anniversaries, but if we don’t acknowledge them, they can actually catch us off-guard.

Part of our family practice of spiritual care is to take some time to thank the Divine Family for those people who have died, who have gone on to the heavenlies before us, especially on the anniversary of their births and the anniversary of their deaths.

I recorded our experience on the anniversary of my Grandpa Fred’s birthday. It’s been tucked away in our Patreon video vault, but today seems like a good day to bring it out and share it with the wider world.

What do you do to mark significant dates?
How do you braid your grief and your faith together?
