The challenge to see the "rubber meet
the road" comes in the doing - by Membership Committees and Rotary
Members. Your District Membership Leadership is committed and earnestly asks
your response to the call for action. It is with excitement and great anticipation
that by applying the methods covered in the Seminars, I have submitted
applications for ten (10) prospective members for my club during the last
month. So to leadership and members, I ask: "Will you please do
likewise?"
Suggestions for your immediate review and
resolve:
- Believe in the need and in the process provided for making
the change.
- Doubt no more; there are many people who want to be part of
us.
- Prospects just need to be invited.
There are no hiding places. We have no
excuses. Again I promise you will have exciting, positive results if you will
put me to the test and apply the simple Personal Daily Membership Strategy.
AG's and Club Leaders, prove to members there is a Santa Claus; extend yourself
and make it happen.
My Christmas Greeting to all of you is my
latest expression of what I feel this whole experience is all about. In
"Live the Songs of Christmas" (see this beautiful Christmas song on
the district blog). Here's wishing you have
your very best Christmas ever.
Live the Songs of Christmas
(1st Stanza Spoken)
It’s Christmas – A time we think
of Jesus –
His birth - His life given for
mankind.
Let’s Live the Songs of Christmas
Doing good and being kind.
Christmas is a time for giving-
Now and all year through.
Give time for dear loved ones,
And for friends we make anew.
We love the season’s greetings;
It’s that joyous time to share.
By giving from our souls with love-
We gladden heart and show we
care.
CHORUS
We Sing the Songs of Christmas-
Sweet sounds from up above.
Oh Live the Songs of Christmas-
Spread Peace on Earth through love.
At Christmas we decorate
And make things pretty and bright.
With our acts of selfless love
We have joy both day and night.
At Christmas we be our best-
And not want the season to end.
Oh we love the joy of Christmas-
And with the Savior’s love befriend.
CHORUS
There’re many ways we show
The true meaning of Christmas;
And if our hearts are inclined-
Heaven’s grace descends upon us.
Simple things and soft words
May be our very best gifts.
And as we reach out and help others
We have peace the Savior gives.
CHORUS
