Thought for the week Oct 22, 2015

Posted by Suguna Alluri on Oct 20, 2015

"None of us are getting out of here alive, so please stop treating yourself like an after thought. Eat the delicious food. Walk in the sunshine. Jump in the ocean. Say the truth that you're carrying in your heart like a hidden treasure. Be silly. Be kind. Be weird. There's no time for anything else." - Sweatpants & Coffee

Events

Sunday Friends - Our club has been scheduled to attend a tour of "Sunday Freinds" on Oct 25th around Noon. We do remember one of the executive directors Ali Berakat talk to our club about the wonderful organization that works with underprivileged families to try and put them on the right path to a fulfilling life. We do hope that most of us can attend and come back with something to think about.

FLC - As we know, our Club has always been at the forefront working with and sponsoring the maximum no. of interactors from District 5170. So, it has indeed been a pleasure to listen to Nick talk about the Interactor Fall Leadership Conference that Ruth, Van, MaryAnn, Sara and Charlie participated in. They attended the workshop for advisors and came back with a plenty of information that will help us council and advise Interactors, actively work and participate in their projects, and attend some of their weekly meetings. For those of us who have signed up as advisors but were not able to attend the workshop, please talk to Nick for advice.

The International Project for the Interactors this year is Human Trafficking.

Day on the Bay - Some of our members including Charlie and Ruth had the chance to attend Day on the Bay at Alviso County Park. It was a big multicultural event with a lot of fun and camaraderie. A good occasion to make our presence felt in the neighborhood. Charlie came back with the info. that the Alviso Rotary Club which is currently running as a Saturday club, may become a chartered club again, once they have enough members.

October is Economic and Community Development Month

Nearly 1.4 billion employed people live on less than $1.25 a day. Our members promote economic and community development and reduce poverty in underserved communities through training, well-paying jobs, and access to financial management institutions. Projects range from providing people with equipment to vocational training. Our members work to strengthen local entrepreneurs and community leaders, particularly women, in impoverished communities.

Rotary members help Indian weavers achieve better wages and working conditions.

Please keep "a good thought" or prayer for these members of our extended Rotary Family who are struggling with extreme health challenges:

Yollette's brother-in-law

Suguna's father - improving but still weak.

May they find "perfect healing."
