Caring for Caregivers Support Group 

Being a caregiver for a loved one with a debilitating or terminal illness is rewarding yet often overwhelming. Our Caring for Caregivers group offers peer-led support, encouragement, prayer, and practical advice.

We meet the first Saturday of each month at 9:30am in the Family of Christ conference room. No matter what kind of caregiver you are, you are welcome to join.
