Dorothy Brown
Dorothy Brown taught school for ten years and then stayed home to care for her three children before joining Campus Crusade for Christ (now Power to Change). She and her husband traveled to many different countries bringing hope and encouragement through freedom in Christ. She has had ample opportunity to learn to trust God in every circumstance as Heather, her eldest, has cerebral palsy and is also mentally challenged. Dorothy battled a very aggressive cancer and went to be with the Lord in 2011. We miss her every day.
