PURPOSE
The Qavah Gathering of Prayer for Family Caregiver was created to offer a place of pause, spiritual renewal, connection, and emotional breathing room. This sacred space exists so caregivers can step out of demanding responsibility and into the presence of God focus inwardly on themselves - without distraction or guilt.
