Let’s Revitalize, Milliken!
13 This is how we know that we live in Him and He in us: He has given us of His Spirit. 14 And we have seen and testify that the Father has sent His Son to be the Saviour of the world. 15 If anyone acknowledges that Jesus is the Son of God, God lives in them and they in God. 16 And so we know and rely on the love God has for us. God is love. Whoever lives in love lives in God, and God in them. -1 John 4:13-16

Sister Pam Montoute
It is with heavy hearts that we announce the passing of our dear Mother, Pam Montoute, who departed from us on Thursday, May 9th, 2024 . Pam was a loving member of our family. She was also a cherished friend to many, as well as to her church family. Pam’s presence among us brought warmth, kindness, and a vibrant spirit that touched the lives of all who had the privilege of knowing her. Her dedication, passion, and unwavering commitment to everyone was exemplary and served as a beacon of inspiration to us all. Beyond her professional contributions, Pam’s genuine kindness and compassion endeared her to everyone she encountered. Whether offering a listening ear, providing words of encouragement, or lending a helping hand, Pam’s generosity knew no bounds.
As we come together to mourn the loss of our family member, let us also celebrate the profound impact she had on each of our lives. Pam’s legacy will continue to live on in the countless lives she touched and the memories we hold dear. We will dearly miss Pam, but her spirit will forever remain with us.
