The Caring Connections Team

We have a team of trained volunteers, coordinated by Pamela Patton, our Director of Congregational Ministries, who are kind, compassionate listeners and spiritual companions. We also have groups you can connect with which are listed in the calendar below.

We know that reaching out can be difficult, and we encourage you to connect with us. Even if times are relatively good for you, we are eager to get to know you. Email Pamela Patton, Director of Congregational Ministries, to request care, support, or prayers.

Support Groups

Caregiver Support Circle

Our Caregiver Circle gathers on the fourth Sunday of the month at 3 PM on Zoom to learn, share stories, laugh, connect and ask questions of each other. Whether caring for a friend, a spouse, a loved one, whether old or young, it can be a lonely experience. Come and connect with others who will understand.

Please email Susan Cooper at [email protected] to discuss whether this group will be a good fit for you. You will receive access to the Zoom meeting through your email.

Single Parent Support Circle

Join us for a weekly virtual support group on Thursdays at 12 PM where we’ll dive deep into the rollercoaster ride of single parenting.
