Adapting to a New NormalFirst Circle Friends
Caregivers work 24 hours a day to ensure loved ones are safe. But caregivers need a break too.
LSI’s First Circle Friends program partners with Iowa churches to provide group respite care for people with early to mid-stage memory loss and their families. The program provides a warm, welcoming environment for loved ones while giving caregivers an opportunity to care for themselves.
If your church would be interested in starting a First Circle Friends group, please contact ChurchRelations@LSIowa.org.
“First Circle Friends is heaven-sent. Without it, I couldn’t do what I need to do.” – Laura, a caregiver and wife
Prayer
Therefore I tell you whatever you ask for in prayer, believe that you have received it and it will be yours. – Mark 11:24
Your prayers are one of the most important ways to support LSI. You can lift up the needs of our neighbors and the mission of LSI by praying for strength, hope, and healing for the thousands of Iowans we are privileged to serve.
