Rejoice in hope, be patient in tribulation, be constant in prayer. Romans 12:12 (NIV)

Medical equipment on loan
The Vail, Colo., Salvation Army Service Extension Unit provides care in an incredibly practical way: loaning durable medical goods to anyone in need. That includes items like wheelchairs, crutches, walkers, and shower bars. According to Salvation Army volunteer Mary Jo Froberg, local doctor’s offices, occupational therapists, senior centers and hospital all use the program for patients. Those needing the equipment include skiers in need of crutches after a ski accident, visitors needing a wheelchair for a few days, or locals who can’t afford the cost of the equipment.

Opina receives award
Salvationist Richard Opina, bandmaster at San Diego Citadel Corps, Calif., was named Teacher of the Year at his site at Bell Middle School. Opina is a music teacher and offers instruction for band, orchestra, and choir. In addition, he has been serving as Sierra Del Mar’s temporary divisional music director. He is also featured as the THQ music department’s worship leader this month.

Happy birthday, Major!

She received a plant from General Eva Burrows, with whom she served in Africa at the Howard Institute, and flowers from other friends.
