Cathy Chang and Juan Lopez, PCUSA Mission Workers Visit Denver
Grace and Peace to all,
Wellshire Presbyterian Church will be host in August for the last leg of the Summer 2018 Interpretive Assignment of Cathy Chang and Juan Lopez, PCUSA mission co-workers in the Philippines. The Rev. Cathy Chang is the PC(USA) World Mission regional facilitator for addressing migration and human trafficking, and her husband Juan Lopez works with Filipino youth.
Cathy will be preaching at Wellshire on Sunday August 12th at the 9:00 and 11:00 am services, and then she and Juan will give a lunchtime presentation of their work, with lots of time for questions and discussion. We invite anyone who is interested to join us on Sunday, and we are also willing to host an additional gathering on Saturday evening, August 11th, for anyone who would rather meet then. If a Saturday event is your preference, please let us know, no later than June 15th, so we can plan.
To say "yes" to a Saturday evening meeting, or Sunday lunch, or for more information, contact turner.martha@centurylink.net.

NEW YORK — The participants at the 62nd Commission on the Status of Women (CSW) at the United Nations come from all over the world and their interests are as varied as their geography. Bulletin boards boast a wide variety of event invitations. From advocating for LGBTQI rights to exploring feminism and Korean TV to genital mutilation in Africa, chances are if the issue affects women, it’s being addressed by a UN agency or by one of the many Non-Governmental Organizations (NGOs) that sponsor lectures and discussions.
