Are you or someone you love involved in caring for another person? Caregiving can take many forms and happen in many ways. It can be shopping for groceries for a neighbor, driving a loved one to a medical appointment, or providing support for a short or long period of time. You may be helping someone who needs round the clock care. You may be spending more and more time dealing with medical issues that are affecting a loved one. The person receiving care may live close by, or be many miles away.

Most of us will be caregivers at some point in our lives. Sometimes this is expected, and sometimes caregiving happens suddenly as the result of an accident or illness. There are many physical, emotional, and spiritual aspects of caregiving. The January 17 HOW TO BE A RESILIENT CAREGIVER conversation will provide an opportunity for a faith based discussion of caregiving, time to share stories of caregiving, and an opportunity to build resilience through prayer and fellowship.
