   Welcome in to Sir Charlie & Gil?  Maybe.  Put it to the board.

 

3. Love for the Kids picnic, December 12.  Book it.  Bill will have a signup sheet.  This is a great event for underprivileged kids, hundreds of them.                                                                                                                                            
4. Services of Hope, 6540 Victoria Ave. Dallas: still want to help out with serving the less fortunate at Thanksgiving, like we used to do at the church? Book the Saturday before Thanksgiving, November 21.                                                                                                                                          I would say that this is a little different than our former experience.  The charity will pack over a 1000 Thanksgiving dinner baskets.  Instead of serving a meal, volunteers will load the baskets and hand them to the appropriate people.

   There are two hand out times, morning & afternoon.  I think Rosemary & I will spend a couple of hours there, probably late morning or, say, around 3:00 in the afternoon.

   Daniel, the director, says they need all the volunteer help they can get.  6540 Victoria Ave. is the address in Dallas, near Love Field, east side, off of Mockingbird.  Welcome.

True?

 A hundred and fifty years ago there lived a woman named Sono, whose devotion and purity of heart were respected far and wide. One day a fellow Buddhist, having made a long trip to see her, asked, "What can I do to put my heart at rest?"

 She said, "Every morning and every evening, and whenever anything happens to you, keep on saying, 'Thanks for everything. I have no complaint whatsoever.' "

 The man did as he was instructed for a whole year, but his heart was still not at peace. He returned to Sono crestfallen. "I've said your prayer over and over, and yet nothing in my life has changed; I'm still the same selfish person as before. What should I do now?"

 Sono immediately said, "Thanks for everything. I have no complaint whatsoever."

 On hearing these words, the man was able to open his spiritual eye, and he returned home with a great joy.

 Tao Te Ching, Stephen Mitchell

Special Announcement: We are moving

After celebrating week after week for 10 years, PISD is asking us to move over to Sigler on Janwood.  Apparently it is quite expensive to A/C the large cafetorium at Vines.  Sigler will be more economical.  September 6 we begin our new adventure.

True?  

 Life is not a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely

 in a pretty and well preserved body,

 but rather to skid in broadside, thoroughly used up, totally worn out,    

and loudly proclaiming,

 

                                           —WOW— What a Ride !
