Catherine (Cat) Sullivan
Hello Fellow Disciples! My name is Cat Sullivan and I will be coming from Seattle to the DC march. I am a member of Journey Christian Church Disciples in Seattle.
If there is a way I can help I will. I will be arriving on the 16th of June and staying in a condo I am not sure where that is, from the evening of the 16-to the 20th. I will be leaving the morning of June 20th back to Seattle.
I am planning on visiting our legislators on the 17th but that is a rather fluid time for that except for our Senator Patty Murray. and my Representative sometime that day, but at this time we do not know when that will be.
I will be happy to help out any way I can. I am pretty experienced on working for marches etc., here in Seattle andf in our Olympia capitol so I suspect there will be something I can do.
Excited to meet all of you in DC! Not one step back!!! Sincerely, Cat
