    In the marathon of dementia caregiving, resilience is your running mate. Just as runners don't attempt a marathon without training, caregivers need to build resilience to sustain themselves through the long journey ahead. But what exactly is resilience? 

    It's the capacity to stay strong and hopeful, drawing from your faith and biblical truths to face trials and challenges head-on.

     

     

    Caregiving is undeniably challenging, but with resilience built on the solid foundation of faith and the support of a caring community, you can navigate this journey with hope and grace. 

     

    Let the Heidelberg Catechism's message of comfort in Christ's sovereignty inspire you to face each day with renewed strength, knowing you're never alone in this journey.

     

    Remember, building resilience in dementia caregiving isn't just about enduring hardship; it's about growing in faith and witnessing God's faithfulness in every step.
