Be A Candle of Care
Pastoral Care is a core component of our beloved community as it strengthens the meaning and experience of community. Every caring action is a compassionate action. We can all participate in caring for our community through a variety of compassionate actions. Here are some ways you can be a “Candle of Care”:
Offering to bring food to someone in need
Send a “caring card”
Visit someone who is experiencing a challenging time
Make a phone call to express your care
Offer transportation to Sunday services or for essential appointments (e.g. medical)
Give a hug (when appropriate)
If you would like to participate in UUFSD’s Candle of Care program please contact [email protected]
The Pastoral Care committee invites UUFSD members and friends to consider joining our new Elder Companions Team. With support from the Pastoral Care committee members, The Companion team member offers compassionate support and companionship; help with transportation to essential services, including Sunday services and other events at UUFSD; connection to resources for elders in the larger community. Please contact [email protected] if you are interested.
Thank you,
Livia, Pastoral Care Chairperson
