Thursday, July 11 at 5 p.m. at Orcas Island Community Church
By Sue Lewis
The Cancer Support Group will hold a barbecue to celebrate three years serving the community.
We will meet on July 11 on the deck of the Fireside Room of the Orcas Island Community Church at 5 p.m. The event is open to all who are affected by cancer: whether as a cancer patient, a survivor, or a family member or friend of someone stricken with cancer.
We want to honor the friendships and support that have been shared through the group. The Cancer Support Group is a no-cost confidential program that meets on the second Thursday of each month. The group shares their experiences with each other and provides support as each one goes through their specific walk on the journey.
This last year there were presentations by Mark O’Neill, Dr. Jim Litch, and Dr.Rachel Bishop. The group has been honored to have such highly qualified guest speakers who have provided valuable information on a variety of topics related to cancer. Please call Bogdan or Carol at 376-4198 for further information.
