President's Message

Lincoln East Rotary Club

District 5650 is sponsoring a series of Inclusivity Workshops in October and November.  The second session was yesterday (10/29/20).  This session focused on the “isms” that might provide a system of advantage to certain Rotary Club members and therefore might make a new member who doesn’t share all of these “isms” feel alone or left out.  These “isms” would make recruiting more diverse members difficult.  The “isms” were:  Ageism, Faithism, Appearancism, Sexism (gender), Heterosexism (sexual orientation), Classism, Ableism (able bodied and able minded), and Racism.  The discussion was very interesting and very insightful.  At the next meeting where we have a speaker who can’t make it, I’ll review the discussion.

Wellness
  Wellness Chairman Greg Schnasse has requested information in regard to any illness by club members and/or their family members.
Greg’s contacts:
Phone: 402-440-9917
 
 
 
Please keep the following Rotarians in your Prayers and Thoughts:
 
Mike Carr:  Mike says he is treading water; changed physical therapist, to get better therapy for being able to walk again, without a walker.
Barry Stelk:  Barry has finished chemo treatment and is scheduled for a CT scan on October 30th.  He gets exhausted very easily and basically no energy, which he attributes to the chemo getting out of his system.
 
We should continue to keep all of our teachers, school officials, and students, EMT's and first responders, hospital doctors and nurses, supermarket clerks, restaurant workers laid off or furloughed and waiting for unemployment, all those who are currently unemployed, human service organizations who still are open to serve those poor/homeless/hungry, funeral home workers, churches, airline employees, hotel employees, gas station and convenience store workers.
 
If you know of any of our members you would like for us to mention who are ill or need a prayer, please let Greg know and we will put it in the SPOKE.
