How I live my faith

I have served in my community in several volunteer capacities as a board member of an accountability program for juvenile offenders and as a planning commissioner for my city. I currently serve in my Church with oversight in music programs, Public Affairs activities. I meet with local congregations and their leaders in their efforts to provide all the programs the Church offers it's members. I serve with my wife in organizing youth participation that covers a large geographical area in our local Temple . I enjoy my neighbors and the people I have served for over 28 years in my Health Practice. People are so diverse it is facinating to see the amazing variety, I strive to be honest in all my dealings with my fellowman and attribute my continued good fortune and growth of my practice to the Christian way of dealing with people.
Family is very important to me, I have responsibility of watching over several widows and single parent homes in our congregation. One single mom has a severely handicapped son that provides me with continual opportunities for help and support that she is without not having a spouse. The elderly ladies are about the same age as my own mother who I speak to every Saturday morning. Having a friend and just someone to talk to is a great benefit to many of their lives and I get to appreciate lifes experiences through them.
I have one gentleman that I see on a weekly basis. His wife of nearly 60 years passed away last year. He was one of my vocal coaches as well as being a patient. Now that he is home-bound I get the opportunity to see him every Tuesday. We go to lunch and then I take him grocery shopping for the week. Since my own father passed away several years ago this is enjoyable for me and He has great time listening to classical music and remembering his days as a professional singer around the world.
