WOW! Fabulous things come to those who are service oriented.
Adopt-a-Block volunteers gathered on Friday, November 16, to celebrate a $60.00 donation and complimentary "Positive Tickets" from our local Royal Canadian Mounted Police, all thanks to the efforts of Constable Krista Wallis.
On that same afternoon, Mr. Drew Hadfield, Transportation Manager, City of Campbell River, delivered a generous supply of equipment including garbage tongs, Visi-Vests and work gloves.
The humble service-group of volunteers who remove trash from sidewalks, boulevards, empty lots and parking lots, alleyways, trails, and yards do so because they are motivated by helping others. By assisting others, volunteers develop a foundation for success and aspirations for themselves. Preparing unencumbered paths for others to tread are symbolic of providing a smooth avenue for their lives. The power of service changes us for the better.
I was once asked, "Why do you clean up others' messes?"
"I provide service because it is acceptable as the highest form of worship to God," I said.
