If winter is your favorite season, we are taking a bus to Willow Springs to go on a horse-drawn sleigh ride complete with a campfire, marshmallows,

We have new presentations for you to learn more - from how to stretch your prescription dollars to vibrational sound therapy to how to use Google to find reliable health information. Based on your feedback and suggestions, we are also starting a Bible study group.

There are always opportunities to gather for a meal. Although we aren’t celebrating any major holidays, we have potlucks, a pizza
