Volunteer Community at the Center for Spiritual Living, Santa Rosa

Dan Jensen first came to the Church of Religious Science when he attended a memorial service in San Diego. Rev Kathy Hearn was the minister there, and he was captivated by the experience. Dan joined CSLSR in 1995 and attends services regularly. He reports the Center feeds his soul and the teachings of Religious Science have transformed his life.  Over the years, Dan has volunteered in the bookstore and run the bake sale at the Holiday Craft Faire. However, his ongoing SEVA is in the Center’s finance department, where he posts the weekly tithing and occasionally helps Anne Galbraith with a project. Dan says, “It is my great pleasure to be of service.”  Thank you, Dan, for the gifts you give so lovingly.

For 18 years, Nancy was a joyful teaching assistant in the 5 to 7-year-old Youth Church classes. She recently changed her SEVA to counting money on second Mondays with Anne, but you may also recognize Nancy’s smiling face from her long-standing fifth Sunday SEVA as an usher and greeter. She also ensures that our roses remain prolific as our volunteer pruner. Thank you, Nancy, for the many ways you have and continue to support our Center!

Carol Seymour, RScP, has been in loving service to our Youth and Family Ministries for 24 years, beginning when we were renting space at the Luther Burbank Center.  In fact, Carol organized a fundraising auction to help us purchase our new spiritual home here. In addition to the Practitioner prayers, she has been providing for 18 years, Carol has also opened her home to visiting speakers and musicians.  All in all, Carol is a stellar ambassador for our Center, and we are deeply grateful to her.

Our featured volunteer of the week is Practitioner Debby Young, in gratitude for her steadfast dedication to the youth and Teens of our Center over the last 9 years. Debby has been a source of weekly inspiration, loving-kindness and compassion. We love you and wish you every happiness as you spread your love and service in new ways in our community. From: Teen Group and Youth and Family Ministry. Debbie is featured here in the middle of two of her good friends, do you know who they are? :)
