Each week you will see a video from experts in the field. You will gain valuable resources to help you recover from your loss and enable you to move forward in life. You don’t have to go through the grieving process alone.
Cancer Companions
Since cancer treatment tends to deplete cancer patients physically, the burden of pushing back fear and despair can feel insurmountable. Christian cancer tools and connections provide cancer patients with a lifeline dramatically decreasing their anxiety. Cancer Companions are trained volunteers who support people in treatment for cancer, post-treatment, or the families or caregivers of those with cancer in one-on-one sessions or in a group.

Pursue a Whole Life at Pathfinder Church
Our church was founded in 1851. Over the years, we’ve discovered timeless truths that help people experience wholeness.
First, Jesus restored our relationship with God the Father. His life, death, and resurrection reclaimed us for eternity.
Second, eternity has already begun. Throughout Jesus’ life and ministry, he continued to point people to a better way of life. He not only addressed our salvation, but he spoke into our relationships, thoughts, physicality, finances and more. He taught us that right now – TODAY – there is more to this life. He showed us what whole life looks like.
We are imperfect people, but we want to follow Jesus because we know his way is better.
Together, we can pursue a whole life.
