The Patterson Family appreciates all the support given, the phone calls, food and most of all the many prayers on our behalf. We were unable to set up an account for the Rwanda Missions. Please make all donations directly through Crossroads Church with a memo stating, "Rwanda Missions for Gary Bohanon." Or please make a donation to a Mental Health Research Center of your choice.
