- to address issues of health care, disabilities, and special needs children

Joys and Concerns:
- It’s a joy to participate in Pride Fest on June 25-26 with local O&A churches, Cairn, South Broadway, Evergreen, and our Central Rocky Mountain Regional Church. Planning details continue!
- Cheryl concluded her interim ministry with Evergreen Christian Church this morning. Brandon Proffitt begins serving there next week.
- Gregory is off chemotherapy and beginning an oral medication this week. He is doing well and very encouraged.
- Janet is spending lots of time with her family as they continue to observe Orthodox Jewish traditions that honor her father’s life and grieve his death.
- Max reports that he’s been “good busy” with Mt. Olive, as they have had lots going on.
- Sherrill received a scholarship to attend a class taught by author Alexander Chi.
- Hannah has been diagnosed with pars defect, a stress fracture in her lower spine, which is fairly common with competitive dancers. Rest is required for healing…
- Kathi has begun a new medication. Cos reports Kathi is less agitated now and not falling as much, but still sleeping quite a lot.
