Public Theology CANCELLED For Tonight, Monday, 5/20/19 Dear All, Pastor Chris became aware of a sign posted on the door of the Irish Hare pub saying that they are closed today, 5/20/19. As a consequence of this unexplained and unexpected closing, he is cancelling the Public Theology meeting scheduled for tonight at 6pm. If you have any questions, you can contact him directly. We are sorry for the inconvenience! Pastor Chris Heller | 480-893-2579, ext. 112 [email protected]

Many thanks and Godspeed to Nancy O'Connor, who spent the last year as our Children's Ministry Coordinator. She is moving back to the Chicago area to be closer to her family. We wish her all the best!

ASU Research Study Recruits Breast Cancer Survivors for Classes at Mountain View Lutheran Church Researchers from ASU’s Recovery and Rejuvenation study are now enrolling eligible breast cancer survivors for a free, eight-week series of one-hour classes that will be offered at Mountain View Lutheran Church. The classes explore how gentle movement and educational support may provide survivors with increased energy and feelings of well-being, enhancing quality of life. Participants who complete the study will receive $70 in gift cards in appreciation of their time. “Evidence-based research indicates gentle movement and peer support are both associated with significant benefits for cancer survivors during treatment and beyond,” said Dr. Linda Larkey, principal investigator for the ASU research study. “We are hoping to learn why that might be, and which approach is most beneficial.” Interested women can contact the study researchers to learn more about eligibility by emailing [email protected], or by calling the study line at 602-496-2329.
