A THOUGHT TO GROW ON

 

I once had a sparrow alight upon my shoulder for a moment, while I was hoeing in a village garden, and I felt that I was more distinguished by that circumstance than I would have been by any epaulet I could have worn.

Henry David Thoreau

                                                           

OUR CLUB HONORS AN EXCEPTIONAL CIVITAN

                

Scott Brown

 

Our President Elect is currently in the hospital with blood clots in his lungs.  He is being treated with blood thinners and bed rest.  Our fervent prayers pour out for his healing, for wisdom for his medical caregivers and for strength for his family and friends.  Scott is an amazing friend.  He’s always there when you need him and sometimes even before you realize you have a need.   He can make you laugh and see life at its best when all you truly wanted to do was hide away.  He is working diligently to make plans for our Club’s positive future.  Please join me in praying Scott through this illness and back to our Club.  

 

PLAN FOR A PICNIC

Please put September 11 on your calendar right now!  Plan to bring a friend that you have been thinking about asking to join our Club.  What a wonderful way to wind down from the Summer heat and hectic schedules!

NEXT MEETING – July 23:   Our Speaker will be Dr. Arthur B. Hartzog, Dean of Students at Spartanburg Methodist College.  Dr. Hartzog will be using his many talents to present “3-D Leadership”.
