It’s possible that these things may be true. But you might be surprised to discover that most of our family lives in this church are all in the same boat! We’re all struggling and fumbling through life and our family relationships in one way or another. Come join the Adult Sunday School class to receive a reminder that the power of the Gospel holds all of us together as Christian families and singles. In this Family Life series, Rev.

One of our church members, Diane Reiman was touched by the small community of strangers in Evansville Wyoming who came together to honor her brother Stephen, a Navy Veteran, who had died. A woman she’d never met, the town coroner (Connie Jacobson) had arranged for the funeral for her brother with Military honors. Among the mourners were the nurses who had cared for Stephen when he died.
Diane said, “A special place in my heart goes out to those nurses in the ICU who came to this service to tell me they were there for him when he died”.
This funeral drew national attention as hundreds of mourners filled the Oregon Trail State Veterans Cemetery chapel to pay their respects for Stephen and mourn with Diane. Please see the link for the NBC Nightly News below.
While it is unusual that we post fundraising requests on our church website we are making an exception for this unusual circumstance.
