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.

What I Love About Being a Volunteer - Mary Ann Granieri

"I’ve always loved using my talents to contribute in some way to my community. It brings me a sense of satisfaction and well-being to help create, nurture, and sustain a healthy spiritual community that in turn supports and sustains so many others, individually as well as those in our local and global communities. Volunteering at the Center has allowed me to meet new people in a way that’s been easy and fun. A spirit of camaraderie easily develops as we collaborate on a common goal. I’ve developed dear friendships with some of the people I’ve met volunteering. It’s also created an opportunity to work with and get to know many of the talented and hard-working staff and ministers who are so dedicated to this Center. My appreciation for CSLSR and for everyone who contributes to it has grown immensely as I’ve glimpsed a bit of what goes on behind the scenes. As I’ve been able to contribute and create by volunteering, I’ve also received much. I feel truly seen, valued, and appreciated....

What I Love About Being a Volunteer - Bette Smith

"I love volunteering at the Center because I get so much in return. I meet new and interesting people and connect with people I haven’t seen in years. I like working behind the scenes so I help Allan Yeager with some parts of the website which is a job I can do from home. I work in the bookstore where I’m surrounded by beautiful items for sale. And I love teaching classes because I have benefited so much from all the classes I’ve taken.  Coming to the Center for over twenty five years has changed my life. I love giving back my beloved Center that has fed me and helped me grow." -Bette Smith
