Open University classes begin at St. Luke Lutheran on Monday, September 21. The bike races are scheduled for the downtown area, so we are not expecting any road issues. On Thursday, September 24, classes begin at First Presbyterian. There is a practice bike course on Cary Street that morning, so please enter Lock Lane from Grove Avenue to get to the church.

We hope to see everyone at both locations.

AND, don’t forget Wednesday’s Lunch-n-Life at St. Mary Catholic at 12 noon – free and open to the public. Bring a sandwich!

We are looking forward to the start of a great school year at the OU!

Yuletide Celebration 2014

On Friday, December 12th we gathered together at St. Luke Lutheran Church for our Yuletide Celebration. We shared some good fellowship and delicious food provided by our Board of Directors. It is always wonderful when we come together and get to know one another better. Everyone had a great time.

I had a fantastic time this past Sunday at Grace Baptist Church’s Christmas Mission Market. It was my 6th year representing TSCOR. It has become a part of my own Christmas traditions and I look forward to it each December. It was great spending time with Karen Hamlett, Randy Scott, Jimmie Gaunce, Bernie Henderson and Sandy Morrison. They are all volunteer drivers for the Center and Bernie & Randy recently joined our board of directors. Both Grace Baptist and TSCOR are blessed by them all. – Julie

Thank you for your support during The Amazing Raise

by Julie - Exec. Dir.September 19, 2014Leave a comment

Well…I think we are getting better at this Amazing Raise thing every year!! All of you who participated this year get an “A+” for effort. I am incredibly proud of how you all have stepped up to give this thing a real try. We surpassed our total unique gifts from last year almost two-fold – from last year’s 46 unique gifts to this year’s 72!!

The main thing we have learned about The Amazing Raise is that it’s not about the amount raised but about how many individual donors you get giving you at least $50. Getting those unique gifts at certain times throughout the 36-hours can really pay off. We will try to arrange a more organized attack strategy for next year. If anyone would like to help with that, let’s get together early next summer and make a plan.

Again, a big THANKS to all of you who took part in the craziness and for supporting The Shepherd’s Center of Richmond. We can’t do it without you! – Julie
