Featured Volunteer: Juanita Ortegon

Juanita first discovered Science of Mind in 1992, and reveled in learning through taking classes. After spending several years in Marin County, she returned to Santa Rosa in 2015 and immediately began attending and offering service at CSLSR. 

She reports that the Center feeds her soul and opens her heart. She delights in volunteering as an usher; serving as lead usher; training new ushers on behalf of Donna Starr, Center Logistics Manager; serving in hospitality Sunday mornings; serving in the Education Ministry and as a greeter at Wednesday Evening Wisdom services; and serving as a greeter on Sunday Mornings, when possible. 

She relished her time serving on the Board of Trustees. Juanita reports volunteering is her way of giving back for what she has received in plentiful abundance toward her spiritual growth through classes and Sunday services. She shares, “There is so much love here. I feel it when I walk through the doors.” 

This Community wishes to thank you, Juanita, for your loving service.
