Dear Friends of Carole O’Connell and Don Discenza, 

Throughout our spiritual journey, many of us have been deeply touched by the ministries of Carole O’Connell and Don Discenza.  They have transformed and enriched our lives in so many ways. 

Now, Carole and Don need us. Don was diagnosed with Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia (CLL) two years ago.  Ongoing treatments have failed to restore his health. Like many Americans today, Don is underinsured. He has always been extremely healthy.  When he left Unity North, he chose only minimal coverage. Don’s out-of-pocket medical expenses to date have been tremendous. There have been times when Don has made treatment choices based on cost rather than need.

For all that Carole and Don have given and continue to give; we now have an opportunity to give back to them. Here's how we can help. Through Bank of America, we can make
contributions to the Don Discenza and Carole O’Connell Medical Fund.  This fund will accomplish three objectives. First, it will enable Don to make the best treatment choices. Second, it will free his mind of money concerns so that he can focus on recovery.  Finally, it will ensure their future financial stability.

Here are options in making your contribution:  Checks can be mailed to either

              • Carole O’Connell, 210 Indian Oak Drive, Waleska, GA 30183
              • Judy Toensmeier, 787 Indian Hills Parkway, Marietta, GA 30068

You may also deposit directly into the account named:
DON DISCENZA & CAROLE O’CONNELL MEDICAL FUND at any Bank of America.
 
Our vision is to raise more than $100,000.00. You may contribute as many times as you wish.  Whatever you give will be gratefully appreciated.

Carole believes and teaches that the Universe will provide.  Thank you for being a part of this process.

Many blessings to you all,

Judy Toensmeier, Karen Trostle, Sandra Wilkes
