A note from Ed: the new chairs have arrived!
Wow! What a crew! Thank you all for the great work you did this morning at the “chairs unloading party”. The weather co-operated and the work was completed in efficient time. all cardboard, metals and plastics have been disposed off. Next up, in about 2.5 months we will have another shorter party, and hopefully we can enjoy muffins and hot chocolate as well. We will keep you in touch as we receive updates on the delivery. Thank again, from the Property Committee!
A note from Jackie and Dennis:
Dear Trinity folks, This is a picture of our grandson Jack, he is five years old and lives with cystic fibrosis (CF). He loves playing hockey, going to Kindergarten, and he loves his friends and family.
In October, I had petitions at Trinity United Church and I asked many of you to sign the petitions.
Petition #1 urged the Minister of Health to provide funding for new cystic fibrosis medications and Petition #2 urged the Minister of Health to establish a Cystic Fibrosis Symptom Management Drug Plan
Thank you to the folks at Trinity United Church for signing the petitions which are directed at improving the health and the quality of life for Manitobans living with cystic fibrosis. Jack and all of our family deeply appreciate your signatures of these petitions.
As an update: On October 22,2021 the Manitoba government did add the new cystic fibrosis drug, Trikafta, to the provincial formulary. This will make Trikafta available for those who meet the eligibility for the treatment. Having Trikafta available in our province will benefit many Manitobans living with cystic fibrosis.
If you have any questions, please contact me and I am happy to respond.
Jackie and Dennis Snarr
