Rise Church sponsors two support groups that each provide an opportunity for people to share personal experiences and feelings, coping strategies, prayer requests, and/or firsthand information about treatments.

Health Challenges Support Group

The Health Challenges Support Group is a women-only group that meets monthly on Zoom. It is an ongoing, “Come & Go” style group that people can come to for as long as they like or whenever they feel the need. It is one hour and includes a short devotional, responses, sharing about each person’s health updates, and a time of prayer together. We also commit to praying for each other on an ongoing basis. The health needs can be acute or chronic; short-term or long-term. If you are interested, please contact Kathy Eastman for details (630-297-3968).

Grief Recovery Support Group

The Grief Recovery Support Groups will meet for eight consecutive weeks a couple of times per year. This is a “Closed Group” meaning that once the group begins, we cannot add more people as the lessons are from a book that builds on each other (The book will be provided to you by the group facilitator). These groups are for Men and Women. If you are interested, please contact the leader in your region:
