I am saddened to hear of Marti's passing.  She was such a great colleague when we worked in the San Joaquin Valley during the Town Meeting campaign.  I always knew I could depend on her for help (and it seemed like we always needed lots of it).  Her sweet spirit was so supportive.  She was a saint.  Joan Knutson.

Dear Colleagues in Faith and Mission, 

Martha Haruko Hirose Kurihara, better known as Martie, ended her journey on earth peacefully at 2:15 A.M.September 6, 2017 at Hines Hospice, Fresno, CA after being admitted on Tuesday. She was an ICA and EI supporter and was part of the Fresno Cadre under the San Francisco Region. She had all the books we read, the Red Book, the Other World Charts, and recruited and enabled many RSI in the San Joaquin Valley and in California. She traveled to Chicago for summer programs and supported and participated in the movement as best she could while raising four children, of whom one is Evelyn Kurihara Philbrook still in the ICA. 

Public viewing will be this Sunday, Sept. 10th  at 4:00-7:00 at Wallin Funeral Home, Sanger.

The First United Methodist Church, Sanger is sharing a pastor, Rev. Neal Harris with Reedley. I do not know him and have not met yet. We are looking for minister who knew about EI in the Fresno Area. If you know anyone, please let me know. We are hoping to hold a service on Monday afternoon, Sept. 11th. 

Grace and Peace, 

Evelyn  USA cell: 559-240-5666
