Hello everyone,

It has been a few months and we\'d like to share a legal update and let you know how Grace is doing personally. Grace joined a federal lawsuit with the nonprofit organization Free Wyoming 23 that included plaintiffs throughout the state of Wyoming. The lawsuit sought justice regarding unconstitutional COVID mandates and measures enacted by the governor, state health agencies, and school districts. The lead attorney failed to meet filing deadlines and the lawsuit was ultimately dismissed without prejudice. Fortunately, Grace’s name was removed before the final dismissal so we could pursue her case independently.

It has proven to be a difficult task to find the right people to represent us legally. After lots of prayer and consideration, God has provided us with a team of attorneys from Wyoming and Colorado. They specialize in constitutional law and defending our civil liberties, and they believe Grace has a strong case to be the catalyst for change. It is our desire to see the case through to a ruling in federal court to establish future protections in Wyoming and across the country. We don’t desire to benefit personally, but seek to have individual rights protected. Things should start moving forward more rapidly now. We appreciate prayer for wisdom and discernment as we move forward.

Personally, Grace has struggled. She has shouldered a huge burden for someone her age. It has been difficult to navigate the transition from everything she knew to her new “normal” and she misses some of the things she gave up. Grace has incredible determination, though, and she faces each day with courage. She is completing online classes, working, and plans to spend the summer as a counselor at a Christian wilderness camp in our region. Please continue to pray for strength, encouragement, and stamina for her and our family. We appreciate all of your messages, prayer, and support.

God Bless,

The Smith Family
