When a cancer diagnosis has been received your world is never the same. We are a group of fighters, survivors, and caregivers meeting up once a month to encourage, support, and offer comfort during your journey. No two stories are exactly the same but who better understands than one who has experienced a similar situation? This group is for cancer patients currently in treatment, those in remission and their caregivers.

• Led by Liz Banwart, Lori Brock & Vicki Earhart
• Meets the 1st Sunday of every month at 10:45am and the 3rd Thursday of every month at 6:30pm. You can choose which time works best for you.

When a parent loses a child, you are faced with the reality of many years ahead of you before you are reunited with that child in Heaven. As you face those seemingly interminable years, we have some choices to make… Are you going to abandon or apply your faith? Are you going to allow grief to make you bitter, or allow God to use grief to make you better? These, and many more questions, are discussed at the While We're Waiting support groups. Here you'll find other parents who have gone through the same life-altering moment of losing a child. Here you'll find others who have found hope on the other side.

• Led by Ward and Tanya Thomas
• The first Thursday of the month at 6:30pm, year round
