Do you care for someone living with Alzheimer’s or Dementia, or know someone who does?

You’re invited to a special evening of reflection, connection, and spiritual support for caregivers and families journeying through the realities of Alzheimer’s and Dementia.

This Spanish-language event is grounded in faith and compassion, offering:

• Encouragement and resources for caregivers

• A space to connect with others who understand the journey

• A reflection on how charity and community sustain us in our vocation of care

Our evening will be led by Connie Saldivar and Lupita Vavalle, co-founders of Somos Ancla, a faith-rooted support group for caregivers and part of our Augustinian family.

Meet Our Presenters:

Connie Saldivar has served as a dedicated parishioner and volunteer at St. Clare of Montefalco for 36 years. She works as a mission coordinator with the Medical Missionaries of Mary and cares full-time for her husband, who was diagnosed with Alzheimer’s 12 years ago. A trained tanatóloga, Connie brings both experience and deep spiritual insight to this ministry.

Lupita Vavalle is a Social Worker, Financial Coach, and passionate motivational speaker. As a co-founder of Somos Ancla, she brings energy, empathy, and encouragement to caregivers, helping them stay grounded in love and purpose.

This is a night to be lifted up—and to know you are not alone. Please see the invitation below and share it with a friend who could use a moment of hope.
