Veterans can meet for coffee and conversation with a group that meets weekly in Birch Bay.
Organized by Rosemary Fahrenkrug and Barry Leisegang, the International Veterans Coffee Group meets from 1 to 3 p.m. on Wednesdays at The Bridge Community Hope Center, located at 4815 Alderson Road.
Fahrenkrug, who has a background in providing support services to veterans, said the group formed in 2017 after a veteran in the community committed suicide.
“Anyone that goes to war can recover and get healed,” she said in a 2017 interview with The Northern Light. “Don’t give up. Just show up.”
