Rotary Membership Month

 

August 6 - Our speaker today is Hendrik De Boer, director of World Impact in West Oakland. Hendrik established his ministry to the West Oakland multi-cultural community after serving as a chaplain at the Wichita, KS penitentiary. He has an interesting story to tell about how Service Above Self has changed lives in communities suffering neglect in environments most of us would not even want to visit. Greg Clark is hosting, Kathy Chiverton greeting.

 

July 30 - Anne Struthers from Contra Costa County Social Services told the club about the county's efforts to assist

indigent families and foster children.
