The Shepherd's Center Of Richmond 
I renewed my membership today. You can’t beat the membership bonus of free attendance to sixteen lunchtime lectures during each term of Open University (OU). During each OU term, add the free-and-open-to-all St. Mary’s Lunch & Life series, and that’s twenty lectures to look forward to during each Fall, Winter, and Spring term!
The Shepherd’s Center of Richmond’s Education Committee is doing a superb job of lining up courses and speakers for the Fall 2024 Open University term which begins on September 23, 2024. Weekday, daytime lifelong learning is a gift in retirement–or with today’s flexible work schedules, anytime!
As you meet new friends and talk to old friends, and if you hear of acquaintances who are retiring or if you meet people new to the RVA area, tell them about Open University and about the Shepherd’s Center of Richmond. There’s is so much to do in retirement; just ask me, and I can tell you what keeps me busy.
