LifeTree Cafe: Overcoming Life's Obstacles
<p><strong>Life’s Obstacles Examined at Lifetree Café</strong></p><p>A rock climber’s struggle to come back after a devastating 100-foot fall will be explored at Lifetree Café on Friday, February 21 at noon.</p><p>The program, titled “Overcoming Life’s Obstacles: How a 10-Story Fall Changed One Man’s Perspective,” features a filmed interview with Craig DeMartino, an avid rock climber who tumbled off a rocky cliff and plummeted the equivalent of 10 stories.</p><p>“Nobody falls 100 feet, hits the ground, and doesn’t die. You should die,” says DeMartino. “That’s just the law of physics. I hit the ground anywhere from 90 to 120 miles per hour. You shouldn’t be getting up.”</p><p>During the program, Lifetree participants will have the opportunity to talk about obstacles they’ve faced and overcome in their own lives.</p><p>Admission to the 60-minute event is free.
