Cross of Christ Church supports the Carbajal Family 

Several members of Cross of Christ met at the beginning of May to see how we could reach out to a family going through a difficult period.

 

Bryan Carbajal was diagnosed with lung cancer last year at the age of 37.  He and his wife Gina have three children, Sydney (12), Miguel (8) and Maya(6).  Miguel has special needs and has been on a feeding tube since the age of 2, making it nearly impossible for Gina to hold a steady job.  Bryan, a chef by trade, lost his job last July when the company went bankrupt.  This was one week after his diagnoses.  Their family has been supporting them by covering the mortgage payments for the last year but those funds are depleting quickly.  In February this year, Bryan's father was hit by a vehicle and killed while crossing the street.  Just when you think it couldn't get any worse, a CAT scan revealed that the cancer has spread to his brain.  Bryan's oncologist has told him he has about 6-8 months to live.

Since the beginning of May, the people of Cross of Christ and the Pipeline Worldwide Organization have pooled their resources in an effort to provide care and comfort.  See the news footage from ABC 15 News which aired on Wednesday, June 16th, 2010.

    Teachers should engage students in creative activities in class. They should give them query to solve in class. They should give them time to solve and help them in solving that query accurately.
