C. Irene Coates

C. Irene Coates, our dear friend and CWU sister passed on February 7, 2012 in Grand Island.  Celebration of life will be held February 14 at the Trinity United Methodist Church in Grand Island.  Visitation is from 4-7 at the All Faiths Funeral Home in Grand Island.  You may view her obituary on the Grand Island Independent website.
Irene is among my first memories of CWU NE. Her commitment to her faith and CWU will remain among my memories of CWU NE. Give thanks for her life and remember her family at this time.  


Reminders
February 11 2012 Ecumenical Legislative Briefing Day. 
February 15 Deadline for the Nebraska Church Woman
March 2  World Day of Prayer
April 20  CWU NE Spring Council Meeting  Norfolk NE
April 21  CWU NE  State Assembly  Norfolk NE 


Join the “Nickels for National” campaign – save your nickels and bring them to State Assembly.  From a discussion of how much CWU women collect through pennies for the Fellowship of the Least Coin came the idea of “Nickels for National” to support the mission of
Church Women United. Campaign was adopted by the Common Council.
