Women of the DRG: Celebrating Caregivers |
|
|
|
Join Women's Ministry on May 7 for a Zoom Party to Celebrate and Recognize our care of each other and all the Caregivers in our lives.
Invite friends to join you in a small group at your home or parish hall* so we can all rejoice together in all the ways we care for each other (or join from the comfort of your home). We'll play some games and learn about some historic caregivers. There will be worship and the chance to make May baskets (remember those?) for friends.
RSVP to Cindy by April 27 so she can send you supplies. Even if you don't plan to do the baskets, please RSVP.
The event is open to women in the Diocese of the Rio Grande and friends anywhere Zoom might reach--so the person you want to honor could be elsewhere in the world.
*A group will be gathering in Kaseman Hall at the Cathedral in ABQ. Let Cindy know if you'd like to be part of that group--it's not just for Cathedral members.
