NODA* (No One Dies Alone)

Do you have a heart for helping our Heritage families navigate through the final hours of their loved one’s earthly journey? NODA is a program that assembles compassionate, loving volunteers who are graced with the humble honor of helping families deliver their loved ones to the door of eternity through a continuous vigil and prayerful presence. For those who have no family, we become the family they never knew they had.

For more details, contact Kathy Williamson at vidkath@me.com.

Caregiver Ministry*

A caregiver’s job is never done, nor can it always be set aside for rest or recharging one’s batteries. Would you be willing to help caregivers here at Heritage by providing activities and conversation to care receivers (those with dementia or memory loss) in a safe environment, while their caregivers attend a Sunday morning church service (during 11am service)?

For more details, contact Leslie Menges at lmenges4774@gmail.com.
