Open University Lunch Speaker Correction

Sunday’s Times-Dispatch book section has an error in the location of Thursday’s lunch speaker.  Dr. Everett Worthington, professor of psychology at VCU, will speak on “Forgiveness and Heroic Humility” at First Presbyterian Church, 4602 Cary Street, on Thursday, April 28, and not at St. Luke Lutheran.  His talk at St. Luke will be on Monday, May 2.

HAPPY NATIONAL VOLUNTEER WEEK!!

To quote our president’s proclamation:

People of all ages can volunteer, and anyone can, through the smallest of acts, do their part to improve the lives of others. This week, we celebrate the selfless individuals around our country who channel their civic virtues through volunteerism, and we encourage more people to make service an integral part of their lives.”

Volunteers help drive our country’s progress, and day in and day out, they make extraordinary sacrifices to expand promise and possibility.  During National Volunteer Week, let us shed the cynicism that says one person cannot make a difference in the lives of others by embracing each of our individual responsibilities to serve and shape a brighter future for all.

I want to thank all of our volunteers at The Shepherd’s Center of shaun-the-sheep-pyramidRichmond for their dedication, energy, encouragement, creativity and excitement.  Together, we continue to make Richmond a more caring community for older people – Julie
