life care

There are a number of times throughout life where you may need support from a local church. Weddings and Funerals, Hospital Visitations, emotional and spiritual support as you face the difficulties and challenges of life: these are just a few of the ways The Chapel is here is to serve.

Grief is as individual as a snowflake!
 GriefShare is a support group that meets with direction and purpose to learn to walk the journey of grief and be supported along the way.
It is where grieving people find healing and hope. If you have experienced a loss or would like to learn to help others facing grief, then this is a great group for you.
In Matthew 11:28, it says "Come to me all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest."

To help you face these challenges and move forward to rebuild your life, come and share with others who are making the same journey. Led by Heidi Tarr.
