ARE THERE PEOPLE MISSING FROM YOUR PEWS? Families providing round-the-clock care for a loved one often can’t get to church without your help. They need a break. They need volunteer respite care support.

Certified Trainers educate volunteers to become Respite Companions. The course is being run as a weekend retreat to accommodate people who work full time. It will be start at 6:30 p.m. on Friday, October 11, and continue through noon on Sunday, October 13, 2019, at Walcamp Outdoor Ministry in Kingston IL.
