Caring for the Caregiver

By Grace • Aug 27th, 2010 • Category: Happenings at Church


Saturday, September 18, 2010
8:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m.

Grace Presbyterian Church
5500 Mansfield Road, Arlington, TX 76017

The issue of care giving and caring for caregivers is always a part of life, whether it involves young families, mid-life or empty nesters. As an ongoing ministry of Grace Presbyterian Church we are offering a workshop to reach out to those who need support and resources as they care for people with life-altering and chronic long-term conditions. Choose from six different presentations covering all aspects of caregiving. The presenters are licensed professional counselors, attorneys, accountants and financial planners from our community. We believe the church is a place of support and resource for both our spiritual and physical needs. Please consider joining us for this day as we offer support, encouragement, and valuable information. There is NO COST for this event and CHILDCARE is available with reservation. LUNCH will be provided!

Brochures with registration cards are available in our church office. Register BEFORE September 10, 2010 using the form below or mail the registration card to reserve your space. For more information call Grace Presbyterian Church at (817) 468-0868.

Six different presentations will be offered twice during the day. Choose one presentation at each Session. Please register me for “Caring for the Caregiver.”

I understand there is no fee for this workshop.
