Together, We Support & Grow

A Community of Support & Understanding

At Watsonville Church of the Nazarene (WatsNaz), we believe in serving our community with love and compassion, especially when it comes to caring for the most vulnerable among us. As followers of Jesus, we are called to walk alongside one another, offering encouragement, hope, and a place where no one feels alone in their journey.

For Pastor Ryan and Megan Albaugh, this mission is deeply personal. As parents of a child with special needs, they know firsthand the joys, challenges, and unique journey that comes with raising and educating children who need extra support. They also understand how important it is to have a community of people who truly “get it”—a place to ask questions, share struggles, celebrate victories, and simply feel seen and heard.

That’s why we are creating a support group specifically for parents and educators of children with special needs in Watsonville and the surrounding area.

What This Group Offers

✔️ A private WhatsApp group to connect, ask questions, and offer encouragement.
✔️ Regular in-person meetups to learn, share, and grow together.
✔️ A safe, welcoming space where parents and educators can find support from people who truly understand.

If you're a parent, caregiver, or educator working with children with special needs, we invite you to join us! Let’s build a community that supports, uplifts, and learns from one another—because no one should have to walk this path alone.
