"There is incredible value in being of service to others. I think if most of the people in therapy offices were dragged out to put their finger in a dike, take up their place in a working line, they would be relieved of terrible burdens."  Elizabeth Berg

Joke of the Week

Secret Service

A friend was in front of me coming out of church one day, and the preacher was standing at the door as he always is to shake hands. He grabbed my friend by the hand and pulled him aside. The Pastor said, "You need to join the Army of the Lord!"

My friend said, "I'm already in the Army of the Lord, Pastor."

Pastor questioned, "How come I don't see you except at Christmas and Easter?"

He whispered back, "I'm in the secret service!"


CONGRATULATIONS DOUG!

Past District Governor Meana Patel announced that the District 6650 Nominating Committee had selected our own Doug Simpson as the District Governor Elect for the year 2009-2010.  This is a great honor for Doug, Vicki and our entire Club.....

and NO this is not an April Fools prank.

Many Past District Governors were on hand to congratulate Doug, and to show their support for Doug, and our Club.  East Palestine will be the host Club of the District Conference in 2009-2010.  We will also host the House of Friendship at the 2008-2009 District Conference.
