Refresh Your Soul Conference

Topic: Dementia
On Friday, March 4, 2016, Episcopal Retirement Homes's Parish Health Ministry (of the diocese of Southern Ohio) will hold its annual Refresh Your Soul conference at Tri-County Assembly of God Church in Fairfield, OH (northern Cincinnati) from 9 a.m. to 4:15 p.m. This year's subject will be dementia, and the keynote speaker is Lisa Genova, author of the book "Still Alice," from which a film starring Julianne Moore was made about a fictional professor of psychology at Harvard and her process of Alzheimer's. Teepa Snow, an educator on dementia, will also be a featured speaker. There is a cost. For more information, see Robert Bennett or visit the event website.

Recycle Ink Cartridges
We Can Use Your Empties Please remember to drop your empty ink cartridges in the box on the bench outside the office. We receive Staples Rewards that help with parish expenses.

Alms
February Each month we collect specific goods for Interchurch to help those in need. During February, we will collect chicken soup. Please place donations in the alms basket. Monetary donations placed in an alms box go to support Interchurch's general fund.
