Micah 6:8 reminds us, “What is good; and what does the Lord require of you but to do justice, and to love kindness, and to walk humbly with your God?” As we look at the brokenness of the world, it is easy to feel overwhelmed and unaware of what is happening or how to help. Recognizing that huddle, we are excited to begin a monthly Peace and Justice Forum with leaders in various service arenas coming to share what they know about pressing issues of our day. We will have a potluck dinner and presentation beginning at 5 pm on the following Sundays: February 16, March 16, April 27, and May 18.
Peace & Justice Forum: Caring for Dementia
Sunday, May 18 · 5 pm Potluck Dinner with Guest Speaker Deb Sloss
Our final forum will center on the ways dementia can disrupt the peace on people’s lives. Those with recent diagnosis, and their caregivers, often struggle to find needed resources. Deb Sloss will be speaking on behalf of The Helm’s SHARE program.
Deb Sloss is a retired business administrator and social worker who has focused on aging-in-place with her work in hospice, home healthcare, and Independent/Assisted Living throughout her career. With The Helm, Deb is one of the SHARE counselors working one-on-one with persons with dementia and their family members to identify community resources that will support both the individual, as well as their caregivers.
