ACAP (Adult Children of Aging Parents)

Meets the 2nd and 4th Mondays of each month, 7:30 – 8:30 p.m.   ACAP is a support group for individuals with responsibilities for aging loved ones. When someone we love becomes someone we must care for, there can come significant changes in relationships, finances and stress. We help address the special needs for the caretaker by providing a confidential, understanding atmosphere to help provide support and information to these persons. ACAP meets 2nd and 4th Mondays in the Howard Taylor Class (120) at 7:30 – 8:30 p.m. If you feel ACAP can provide any assistance to you or someone you know, we look forward to seeing you at our next meeting. You need not be a member of First Church. If you have any questions or need additional information, please call Teresa Cave, 972-530-0679.

Boy Scout Troop 57

Troop 57 and Venture Crew 57 are members of the Gray Owl District of Circle Ten Council, Boy Scouts of America. The troop and crew are chartered by the First United Methodist Church of Garland, Texas.

As one of the oldest troops in Circle Ten Council, we are very proud of our heritage and are also very thankful for the support shown to us by the Church over the years. We are an active troop and we are involved in serving our community in any way we can.

Eagles

National statistics tell us that less than 4% of Scouts earn the prestigious rank of Eagle. Troop 57 is especially proud that, to date, 158 of our number have attained that goal, and the number is still increasing!
