Featured Volunteer: Linda Thomason

Linda Thomason has offered her gifts of service for nearly all of the two decades she has been a member. Even when the Center was back at the LBC, she helped with bookstore operations there. She has served on the Board of Trustees, the Stewardship Committee and enjoys assisting at events and special projects when they arise. Her monthly bookstore service is a joyful way to meet people and help them select unique gifts or find books that they need.

She says that being in service is a privilege and is very gratifying every time she offers herself. Her warm smile and kindness brings that same gratification to all of us.

Featured Volunteer: Ken McCauley

Ken McCauley has served as Treasurer on the Board of Trustees and as a longtime volunteer member of the Stewardship Team, seeing to the financial integrity of our Center. 

Ken says about sacred service, “Many years ago, I learned that service is its own reward. Ever since, I love working with a team and offering my time and talent to a common good. In doing so, I feel I am a part of a community; I am a part of our beloved Center. I belong.” 

Thank you, Ken, for your gracious and meticulous care of our Center and for sharing your wisdom about one of our pillars of spiritual practice.
