Living by faith love and hope
Winter 2020
Blessed new year to y’all.
Our New Year’s resolution
Let us replace acts like jealousy, hate, revenge, and greed with acts of love, care, and kindness
Let us turn in the direction of Peace, Happiness and Enlightenment.
Doing good is good for you…..Volunteer !
As 10,000 Americans turn 65 daily, they are redefining what it means to reach this aging milestone. Some are delaying retirement. But whether they are working or not, many are embracing opportunities to contribute in new ways by volunteering, sharing a lifetime of knowledge and experience to improve the lives of people in their communities. Volunteering not only benefits Society, research shows it can also pay big dividends in better Health as you age.
2 hours of volunteering a week or about 96 hours per year one can experience improved mental, emotional and physical health – benefits that many older volunteers are reaping because, on average they contribute almost twice as many hours as other age groups.
Volunteering can help to reduce depression, lessen chronic pain and give your brain a boost. You can even live longer! See www.volunteermatch.org for info on volunteering.
