From Tim Temple

Caregiver’s Chalice Circle meets on the third Monday of the month at 7 to 8:15 pm. We have a core group of 6 to 8 people. We share a covenant together to regularly attend the monthly meetings and be supportive of one another’s efforts. As with most groups, we currently meet using the church’s Zoom account. We each have time to share our caregiver’s experience that month without interruptions. Personal details shared and heard in the Chalice group should remain confidential, unless stated.

We are all caregivers, however each circumstance is different. Our concern is for at least one adult, who can no longer care for himself or herself without assistance. Sometimes they may be local or in a distant state. Some may be in their own home or apartment, others may be in a care facility.

A benefit is to provide a safe and trusted place to share private information, any complaints or fear, humor, inspiration, and empathy. The Chalice Circle serves to add to the health and strength of our local Church Community as a small part of this network of support.
