The Caring and Sharing Group members share in all activities
wholeheartedly. We come together as a family. We grow out of doing those things such as
sharing our time and talents and keeping the shut- ins of our Church abreast of what is
going on in our Church. Each member volunteers her or his time caring and sharing with an assigned shut-in member of the congregation.
We have suggested guidelines we follow in making calls to the
shut-ins. We have over 35 active members in the Group at this time. Throughout the year we
phone the shut-ins once a week, if possible. During Christmas and Easter Holidays the
Group sends out cards to people and visit as well. Easter baskets and Christmas bags
filled with nutritious snacks are also given to our shut-ins.
Cards of encouragement are mailed to college students from time
to time. During the summer we have a social gathering. This is a time for the shut-ins to
come together, have a light brunch and fellowship with members of the congregation and
friends.
