Celebrate Life Cancer Ministry

Celebrate Life Cancer Ministry was birth from a personal cancer experience.  September 11, 2001, yes 9/11, the same day the United States and the world was turned upside down was the first day in the doctor’s office for what was a life changing experience.  The diagnosis of cancer was delivered October 1, 2001.  It was a long, challenging experience and it was not an easy process.  After two surgeries, two rounds (10 sessions) of chemotherapy and 25 days of radiation – one year of treatment had come to an end. 

Within this initial year, the people that Rhonda Holbert Santifer met along the road to recovery shared telephone number and encouraged one another.  Once the treatment was over, conversation of having a party to celebrate the end of treatment and celebrate life turned into a potluck holiday dinner December 2002 for those survivors and a caregiver each – about 25 people.  Rhonda had been told by her pastor to pay attention to this party because she believed God was doing something special.  At the party, three people said, “We need to do this more often”.  January 2003 Celebrate Life Cancer Ministry began meeting monthly and God's hand has been evident ever since.
