In Monterey: How I am daring to care in Monterey Bay for my friends and family.

From Nancy Peden, who lives in downtown Monterey: Well, I am daring to care here in Monterey Bay for the second year now. One way is that I created and uploaded a web site, www.daretocaremontereybay.org , created this blog and have donated the hosting of both.

I am doing this in the memory of my friend, Reverend Rory Elder. Rory passed away recently. He was on the Community of Caring board of directors and I know that he enjoyed Dare to Care Day.

Rory, we are doing it again! This time we are doing it for a whole week. We miss you and we are hoping you are showering your light down on us.

To hear Rory's voice and to inspire any moment of your day you can listen with Quicktime on the web to his short inspirational pieces. They will make your day!

From the Unity Monterey site, in the section Rory named "Give 'em Heaven: http://www.unitymontereybay.org/UCMBMain/GiveEmHeavenRadioSpots.htm

Rory, I miss you and I will miss you for a long time, whenever Monterey needs a great man of spirit to show up and speak the truth that we are all worth caring for and with. May God bless you, Rory, up there in heaven and in the Mother Earth, who holds you now in her loving arms.
