First
Lady Michelle Obama asked us to spend this Saturday in service to others. I
firmly believe that we should spend every day giving of ourselves to others.
Author Jeff Warner once said, “we are not put on this earth for ourselves, but are
placed here for each other. If you are there always for others, then in time of
need, someone will be there for you.”
Tomorrow, Saturday, January 19
is an opportunity for you to join with the New Democrats at the Annual MLK
Potluck Party and Canned Food Drive, hosted by Amelia and me at our home, 535
West 8th Street at 7:00 pm. It’s an opportunity for you to donate
canned goods and other non perishables to one of our local food banks. It’s
also an opportunity for you to socialize with friends and to meet some new
people. Bring a dish to share.
Your
donations maybe dropped off today at my door or you may bring them to the party.
We look forward to a day of service and a day of giving. Amelia and I welcome
you to our home. We make one simple request, in the words of Mother Teresa, “If you can't feed a hundred people, then just feed one.”
Adrian
and Amelia
