Trinity Christian Reformed Church in Anchorage, Alaska, sent this picture of its Friendship class. The class was started by Ellen and Ted Whip several years before the Friendship curriculum for people with cognitive impairments was developed by Friendship Ministries and Faith Alive. Members have come and gone, but some have been attending for more than 25 years. Front row: Mark and David; back row: Mike, James, Bob Nichols (assistant Sunday school teacher), Vernon, Natalie, and Jeffery. Teachers are JoAnn Worst and Gayle Cederberg.
