A SUCCESSFUL PARTNER'S MEETING
(reported by Denny Brand)
The Partner's meeting was held in Minneapolis, MN on June 1. There were 29 people who were in attendance. As I think about this meeting, I am reminded of a chorus that has a line "there's a sweet, sweet, spirit in this place." The spirit was truly there. I have attended many meetings over the years with PFH/CBP, but have never attended one that was more enjoyable and fun. People were meeting people who they knew about because of the mission, but had never met face to face. People were hearing from all of the leaders who shared enthusiastically their part of the mission. It was rewarding to have medical staff, construction leaders, and educators join together and share ideas on how we can work together to make this mission stronger. I think everyone who was there, left the meeting feeling appreciated, respected, and energized to do even more than they are now.

Siri Fieberger, Fargo, ND - President of the PFH board and Fargo Surgical Team
