"A Piece of My Heart" and "We Were There Too" on May 7 in Paradise Valley
The Franciscan Renewal Center (Casa) Veterans Ministry, in conjunction with the Peoria Unified School District Faculty/Alumni Showcase, is sponsoring an event to increase community awareness of the military service experience of our women veterans, particularly those who have served in Vietnam and other conflict areas.
The event will be held at the Franciscan Renewal Center (5802 E. Lincoln Drive, Paradise Valley, AZ) on Sunday, May 7th, 3-5 pm, with a reception to follow (A $10 donation is asked at the door).
The program will begin with a shortened version of “A Piece of My Heart,” a play based on the true stories of six courageous women sent to Vietnam. Afterwards, a 45 minute panel discussion entitled: “We Were There Too” will feature local Valley women veterans who will share their stories of service and sacrifice during the conflicts in Vietnam, Desert Storm, Iraq and Afghanistan.
