Need help caring for someone nearing the end of life?
God’s earthly care and provision for us began when we were still in our mothers’ wombs and it extends until we draw our last breath. We are not alone as we make our journey to the end of life. The decisions we make are an important expression of our faith in God, and we need to know that we are embraced by his Body in the community of the church. We know there are changes and concerns that emerge in the later years of life that include relationships as well as mobility, financial, medical and spiritual needs. The church offers help to meet these needs. Anglicans for Life works to connect and equip existing ministries of care to faithfully meet end of life needs.
