The Parenting Support Group is an opportunity for parents of school age children to meet and discuss the everyday challenges of raising children in this day and age including helping to build confidence in children, setting limits, sibling rivalry and other topics which participants bring. All parents are welcome,–single and partnered, traditional and non traditional and parents in blended family situations. The group is led by a mental health professional and all discussion is confidential. Childcare is available but parents planning to bring children should notify Jennifer DeWolf by Friday to provide the number of children attending and their ages. There is no cost for the group but participants are invited to bring a donation of non-perishable food for the Bristol Good Neighbors Soup Kitchen or paper goods for the East Bay food pantry.
All are invited to share in a traditional feast, and individuals and families who would otherwise be spending the holiday alone are encouraged to attend. There is no charge for the meal, and donations will not be taken. The meal is being sponsored through the generous donations of area businesses. If you already have Thanksgiving Day plans of your own but would like to help with food preparation, donations of baked goods, set-up or cleanup, the church would be grateful. Call if you plan to attend or want to help.
