A BeFriender is a companion on the journey of others in need, offering listening, presence, and compassion.  Someone who can allow others to express their own feelings without telling them how they should or shouldn’t feel.

We are thankful for our trained and currently active BeFrienders:  Marge Cagley, Patty Craft, Marlene Daul, Cathy Duffy, Renelda Hushka, Jan Kester, Al Peach, Joann Peterson, Dorothy Renner, Wayne Sanders, Greg Schmalz, Maureta Studebaker, Dorothy Thiessen, Don Tillisch, Karen Walz, and Naomi West.

If you are interested in the BeFriender Ministry program, please consider attending the upcoming information night.  It is scheduled for Thursday, November 12th, 7:00 p.m. in the Nazareth Room. (Written by Marlene Daul)
