It includes helpful advice on planning kickoff events and provides resources for coping with emotional and physical health. Also included are\n \n \n\n \n- fill-in-the-blank forms\n \n- creative group activities\n \n- lists of dos and don'ts\n \n- resources for legal and financial matters\n \n \n\n \nThis book provides everything needed to get a widows ministry started, except for prayer.\n
