Service is the rent we pay to be living. It is the very purpose of life and not something you do in your spare time.-- Marian Wright Edelman
The sun on your face, a light wind on your back, snacks, coffee and water: The perfect ingredients for an old-fashioned, early Saturday morning clean-up! Myself, along with the Wissahickon Civic Association cleaned up a neighborhood park in Philadelphia. We swept up debri, blew leaves, whacked weeds, sanitized playground equipment, painted fences and brainstormed fundraising ideas for the newly planned community recreation area--and all before 11:00am! **Whew** I enjoyed working alongside Philadelphians in the spirit of CIVIL SERVICE to help make this city the great place we know if can be! I encourage each of you to go through your community, or that of a loved one and figured out how you can lend a helping hand to help "restore the vision for our communities".
In His service......
