Mercy Health – St. Rita’s Medical Center continues to provide quality of cancer care with the addition of a TrueBeam system – the latest in radiotherapy technology.

Bluffton University’s Grace Albrecht Gallery will host “A Visual Reflection on Fear and Connection” by Merrill Krabill, chair of the art department at Goshen College.
Krabill's current body of work uses the metaphor of death and resurrection to explore life's pain and loss. The hope the work holds out is that the interconnectedness of all life is our way to move from loss to redemption.
Opening Aug. 26, the exhibit is free and open to the public through Oct. 18.
