MPSN Board Members
Mary
Wright has been on
the MPSN Board for 10 years. Planning the dances with this
great Board has been a privilege and we do have fun along the
way.
We encourage folks to find a good Bible-Teaching Church and "settle in" for growth and maturity. Check out the listings for those facing Divorce Challenges. Many of the churches in the area also offer Recovery groups that are supportive.
Our Networking area includes people who come from as far North as Longview WA, as far south as Eugene, from the Coast and from as far east as Sandy, OR.

Barbara
Rice teaches emotionally and behaviorally challenged
teen boys. That's the easy job.
Barbara lives in the country west of Portland and finds beauty consuming: the beauty of God and nature, music - piano, composing, guitar, wishing she could sing... the beauty of creating written material, art, flower arranging, and the beauty of keeping her beater house from falling down.
Of course, among her passions is dancing - from worship dancing to social dancing. Front and center in her passions is doing inner healing with people, setting God up to be the counselor and watching his miracles of healing and connection.
