This informal group meets on the third Sunday of each month at 3:00 p.m. in the conference room at Coolville United Methodist Church.  If you are providing care to a family member or other person, or are the family member of a person receiving care, you are cordially invited to join with us for a time of sharing your experience/concerns and receiving an affirmation of the role you play. 

 

 

Exercise is essential to good health for each of us.  We offer a walking program, aerobics program, and a "Sit-N-Be-Fit" program for those unable to participate in vigorous exercise.  Check our "Calendar" page for days and times.

 

 

The loss of a loved one by suicide is devastating.  There is shock, disbelief and a myriad of emotions involved.  Survivors may feel guilt, be shunned by family or friends and do not understand why this happened.  It is hard to share feelings with those who may not understand what they are feeling.  The support group is made up of suicide survivors.  They listen without judging, share experiences, offer support and share grief.  One can find help in the healing process.  Anything shared with the group is in confidence.  The group meets on the third Tuesday of each month, 6:00-7:00 p.m., at the Appalachian Community Hospice office, 30 Herrold Avenue, Athens.  There is also a group held on the second Tuesday of each month, 6:00-7:30 p.m., at The Bowen House, 196 N. Market Street, Logan.  For more information, please contact Mary Schreck at 740-541-1384. 

 

 

Jesus instructed his followers to "feed my sheep."  In this spirit, we offer breakfast and lunch to kids during the summer break from school.  Check our "Summer Lunch Program" page for more information.
