As part of Covenant's Wednesday Night Alive Program, we are presenting a series of seminars addressing needs and concerns of caregivers.  This series is available to anyone in the community who is currently dealing with caregiving or who anticipates becoming a caregiver in the future.  Seminar presenters will include experts from agencies that provide support to caregivers and to those they give care.  All seminars will be presented at Covenant Presbyterian Church, 301 Drave Ave. SE.

Seminars are scheduled every Wednesday evening, beginning January 6 and running through March 10.  Except as noted, all seminars run from 6:00 pm to 7:30 pm.  There is no charge for any of the presentations.  For more information, contact Rev. Mark Looyenga at 256-881-4501.  For the complete schedule, click below.
