The John Lothrop Memorial Fund
As many of you know, John and Gale Lothrop were instrumental in the development of the original vision for Hope House while he was chair of the Faith in Action Ministry at Church of the Red Rocks. John and Gale then went about the work of building a team from around the community who would develop that vision. Their work included, among many things, land acquisition, building plans, fund raising and the creation of an organization that today serves unhoused mothers and their children in Sedona. John and Gale moved to New York last year (2023) to be near family. John was diagnosed with brain cancer in the early spring.
He died on May 4, 2024 surrounded by family.
In memory of John, Hope House of Sedona and The Church of the Red Rocks are setting up a Memorial Fund to support the work of Hope House. Use of the funds Hope House receives will be determined by the Hope House Board of directors.
Contributions may be made through the Hope House website: www.hopehouseofsedona.org or mailed to:
