Saron’s Mental Health Ministry will explore

a different topic each month.

This month’s topic is: 

Caring for the Caregiver

So many times we are

faced with caring for a

friend or a loved one and

it can be  all encompassing

and at the same time

exhausting. 

While our love for them

makes us want to help

them and care for them

we can become

overwhelmed at times,

and before we know it

our own health has

become affected. 

Check out the board in the Narthex for November. You will find helpful tips for you when you are the caregiver.  There are also resources to help identify being overwhelmed and resources for help you manage it all. 

Remember-- you need to stay healthy so you can be there for the person you love and want to take care of.
