Our hearts are with all those affected by the catastrophic flooding that struck Central Texas yesterday. The Compassionate Friends community holds all those impacted in our thoughts during this heartbreaking time of loss and upheaval.

We extend our deepest compassion to grieving families, those facing unimaginable hardship, and the brave responders offering help. May you feel the strength of caring hearts surrounding you, near and far.

TCF family. You do not need a reminder, but you may need a hug.

July is Bereaved Parents Awareness Month. The Compassionate Friends is thinking of our friends and family who have been going through one of the hardest losses, the death of their beloved child or children. Visit our website to find a local chapter or online support.

Every parent who had a child pass away asks the same question - How do I live without you? Life is different without your child. You miss everything about your child...the laughs, the celebrations, even the messes. What we wouldn't give to have our child back! Hold on to the memories. Never let go of them.

Your child will forever be in your heart. They may not be here physically, but your child will live on in your heart.

The Compassionate Friends Credo


The Compassionate Friends Worcester Chapter is here for you. During these changing times, isolation and social distancing can be challenging. Contact us and we’ll share some of the ways you can virtually access the resources and connections you need.

We need not walk alone. We are The Compassionate Friends. We reach out to each other with love, with understanding, and with hope. The children we mourn have died at all ages and from many different causes, but our love for them unites us. Your pain becomes my pain, just as your hope becomes my hope. We come together from all walks of life, from many different circumstances. We are a unique family because we represent many races, creeds, and relationships. We are young, and we are old. Some of us are far along in our grief, but others still feel a grief so fresh and so intensely painful that they feel helpless and see no hope. Some of us have found our faith to be a source of strength, while some of us are struggling to find answers. Some of us are angry, filled with guilt or in deep depression, while others radiate an inner peace. But whatever pain we bring to this gathering of The Compassionate Friends, it is pain we will share, just as we share with each other our love for the children who have died. We are all seeking and struggling to build a future for ourselves, but we are committed to building a future together. We reach out to each other in love to share the pain as well as the joy, share the anger as well as the peace, share the faith as well as the doubts, and help each other to grieve as well as to grow. We Need Not Walk Alone.

We Are The Compassionate Friends.
