Memory Keepers
The “Memory Keepers” is a care group for caregivers of dementia patients. This group is designed to provide a safe, judgement-free, confidential atmosphere of sharing for those who are caring for a family member suffering from dementia. It doesn’t matter if your family member resides in your home with you, or in a care facility.
It is open to the community, however, it is not led by medical professionals. It is in the style of a small study group and we use the Bible for our source of strength.
We meet on the 2nd and 4th Fridays of the month, from 2:00-3:30 pm at the Newberg campus in room 204 (the main building).

Wednesday, March 10, evening

Stephen Ministry
There are times when every one of us experiences difficulties; God never intended for us to go through these experiences alone. Our Stephen Ministers are members of the church who have received special training to provide confidential one-on-one emotional and spiritual care for people who are hurting. Stephen Ministers often care for those experiencing grief, loneliness, divorce, hospitalization, disability, job loss, and many other life difficulties.
To learn if you might benefit from this ministry, contact Mary Ruff and Linda Tompkins at stephenmin@mynw.cc
