New Samaritan Program: Many of you have visited the border in the past but will be unable to return in the coming months. A team has formed to offer your group an update of the situation here as it is evolving. A live zoom program can be crafted to your interests with Samaritans offering information including Q&A sessions. The plus about this offer is that folks will be able to attend who would not have been able to come here personally. If you are interested in current developments here, please contact:
     Barb Lemmon blemmon5@yahoo.com or Susie Sanders sanders.susie1@gmail.com
