LOS ANGELES — Doug and Connie Moore met at seminary. He was a student and pastor of an inner-city congregation, and she was a student and a public health nurse. The pair wed in 1974, and Doug became a pastor at the First Evangelical Free Church of Los Angeles in 1983. So, twice a month, the Moores visit a program often referred to as a “Memory Cafe,” which offers social activities for people living with Alzheimer’s and dementia — and their caregivers. There are more than 800 regular gatherings around the country listed in the Memory Cafe directory, including more than 20 in California.
