Marcia can be reached via email meiermarcia5@gmail.com or Tim via email fccrevtim@comcast.net. Marcia’s cell phone is (303) 884-1106.

Keep in mind that this is a three way partnership, so if a UCC congregation is hosting the Venezuelans earlier in the week close to you, we encourage you to attend. Once we have a complete schedule we will share it so that you will know of all the possibilities.
