Nourish Caregiver Support Group

Virtually every one of us will care for a loved one at some time in our life.
Though rewarding, it is not always easy. Nourish for Caregivers is for anyone juggling the challenges of everyday life, health, career, and caring for an aging parent, spouse, child, or grandparent, in town or at a distance. ​Nourish provides caregivers a faith perspective, as well as practical and emotional support, useful tools, and shared experiences. Discover the blessings that come from caring for another, and at the same time fill your heart, mind, body and soul with love and hope.

Nourish Caregiver Support Group meets in Room 7 on the second Wednesday of the month at 7:00 PM.

For more Information or Questions contact Dan or Amy White at Nourish.SJV@gmail.com

​​A Caregiver's Prayer


Lord Jesus, who from the cross gave the care of your Mother to St. John, help us to realize that you have blessed us too with the care of someone in our family. Help us to be your gentle hands and loving compassion on earth.

Father in heaven, you know my heart, calm my anxieties. Pour out your grace and mercy in my life like a healing balm. Lighten my burden, answer my prayer, and give me the strength to do what so often seems impossible.

Spirit of life, remind me to breath - give me a quiet place to rest when I need it and breathe in me your loving peace. Remain my constant companion through this journey. And, when it is time for me to let go, help me remember that my dear one is leaving my loving embrace for yours.

Amen
