A beacon (bēkn) of light for those who need it most.
We help churches launch essential support services for family caregivers and seniors as they age. We do this by working alongside pastoral leadership using various educational and developmental programs.
To get started, our church ministry survey helps you discover the needs of your congregation's aging seniors and their families.
WE HELP THOSE WHO HELP OTHERS
WHY IS CARING FOR OUR CAREGIVERS A PROBLEM IN OUR CONGREGATIONS?
We have found that so many times aging seniors get overlooked. All the while their caregiving families struggle to participate in church activities.
Family caregivers face a wide range of challenges as they support their aging parents. Burnout, isolation, mental & physical health complications and financial strain are common among those taking on added responsibilities to care for an ill or aging loved one.
The average caregiver is a working mother in her mid-forties, caring for a widowed mother in her late sixties while still raising her own children.
WHAT WE OFFER TO YOU.
We are on a mission to expand the way the church supports
our aging population.
bēkn develops senior's ministries which include their caregiving families. We help provide essential support through practical, spiritual and emotional care within the context of local churches.
In addition to seminars and workshops, we have a three-pronged approach. We offer support to launch respite ministries, decision-making workshops or tailor-made programs to best care for the needs of each congregation.
