The Catholic Parishes in Waterloo
are pleased to sponsor a
CARE-GIVERS
WORKSHOP
Saturday, Sept. 6, 2008
9:00am – Noon • Anne Sulentic Parish Center
Blessed Sacrament Parish, Waterloo
We know
care-givers often feel overwhelmed, confused, and unprepared.
Many care-givers feel trapped by conflicting responsibilities
and unreasonable demands. It is easy to become discouraged,
angry and exhausted.
This workshop is designed for spouses, family members, home
visitors, Extraordinary Communion Ministers and others
who are principle care-givers for
chronically ill, aging or dying loved ones.
Our goal is to encourage and support caregivers by helping them
appreciate the spirituality of care-giving and learn more about
resources which are available to caregivers in the local
community.
