Questions: Oftentimes the bible can be confusing. There are sayings or verses that make you stop and go “what?”, and a lot of topics are plainly difficult to understand. For those of you who have any questions about the bible, about God, or a particular topic you just want to know more about, you can submit the questions below and we’ll answer them!

ElderCARE Lake County: ElderCARE is a tremendous organization focused on caring for elders in the community that is currently in need of more volunteers. ElderCARE has many unpaired, isolated elders in need of a companion volunteer, so just one phone call a week from a volunteer like you can make a big and immediate difference in someone's life!
ElderCARE pairs volunteers with an elder who would benefit from interaction, friendship, and companionship. This is a great opportunity for health professions students as this can be done via phone call (or home visits if you are interested), once a week, offering busy students a consistent and convenient opportunity to serve. Attached is all of the necessary training information.
Interested students may apply at ElderCARE's website and should reach out to emma.so...@my.rfums.org (or via GroupMe) so she can ensure your application was received and also answer any questions.
