Published on October 17, 2026

Sat., Oct. 17, 2026, 7 – 8:30 p.m.

HCAS 8th Annual Meeting:

Caring for the sick and dying is a central calling of the Christian life, yet many of us feel unprepared to enter another person's suffering with wisdom, confidence, and love. Drawing on their personal experience of caring for Lois, a woman with terminal cancer who became part of their family during her final months, Michael and Tracy offer practical guidance for walking faithfully alongside those facing serious illness. They invite individuals and churches to rediscover Christ's call to care for the sick with compassionate presence and enduring hope.
