RECHARGE, RELAX, REFRESH: attend RETREAT for Couples who Care for Others in Their Home

Home truly is “where the heart is.”  Caring for someone you love whose battling memory loss, stroke, cancer, or any serious condition requires love, strength, and Grace.  It can be a difficult time and a beautiful one as well. 
Whether caring for a spouse, a child, a parent or grandparent, it’s easy to become overwhelmed, over-stressed, and wonder if the only relief is jumping overboard. 

“SPIRITUAL RENEWAL for the CARE PARTNER JOURNEY” is a 1-day retreat offering care partners a chance to recharge, relax, and return HOME refreshed and ready to continue the loving journey.  It’s happening this Friday in SHEBOYGAN FALLS.   

Pre-registration is required so I encourage you to read the retreat details from today’s Sheboygan Press below and call Kathleen Manny right away so you can attend this spiritual day of renewal.
