YOU CAN HELP! Donna Maatman will be participating in a triathlon called Tri-4-Freedom to support victims of
human trafficking and will be swimming for 1 hour, biking for 2 hours and running for 1 hour in Lexington, KY on
June 6 & 7.
Does this issue, which touches 27 million people worldwide, break your heart? Are you surprised to learn that at

event. Thank you for your prayers and support.

Maternal Support Program through the Missaukee County Health Dept. She will be giving the items to new moms
