Slow to Speak
As I have been doing some preliminary reading and preparation for our upcoming Bible Study on the Book of Proverbs (which you can watch on Channel 1-2, 3:00pm, beginning on Wednesday, October 28th), one verse stood out to me, particularly when rendered in contemporary language: “You will say the wrong thing if you talk too much – so be sensible and watch what you say” (Prov. 10:19).

Fall is Officially Here and Monica is Back!
If you were wondering where Monica has been for the last month and a half, wonder no more because she is back! While Monica was out, she welcomed her first baby, Hosanna Rae De La Rosa into the world. Hosanna’s birthday came 3 weeks early and she still weighed a healthy 5.7 lbs. If you haven’t seen a picture of her precious baby, you must stop by the Recreation Center and take a look for yourself. Now that Monica has returned, her hours, days and title have changed. Monica is now a full time Recreation Specialist and no longer with transportation. She is here Monday through Friday and no longer Wednesday- Sunday. Church runs will remain the same with another driver. We would like to personally thank Mireya for helping out while Monica was gone. Mireya will still be on campus for some time helping out with transportation in the meantime.
Now, time to highlight some events for October!
On Tuesday, October 4th, we will be packing our lunch and heading to the Herberger Lunch Time Theater for a show called “A Little Something Called Family.” Boarding passes for this event are available at the Welcome Center for $7. You will also want to grab your ticket to the Arizona Broadway Theatre for a show called “Funny Girl.” Boarding passes are $80 and includes lunch.
Come and hear the courageous story of Adolfo “Harpo” Celaya. Adolfo will share his life story and how he didn’t speak a word of English when entering the first grade, how he survived one of the most horrific experiences a man could endure with the sinking of the USS Indianapolis, and how he led a band of six Mexican Americans on a rampage through the Arizona state high school basketball championship tournament in 1947. Adolfo will be speaking on Tuesday, October 25th at 10AM in the Life Center. All are encouraged to attend.
Our Oktoberfest theme dinner will take place on Thursday, October 27th starting at 5PM. Entertainment by the Oom-Pah-Pah Band will start at 6PM. Tickets and menu will be available for purchase and viewing in all dining venues closer to the event date.
We will be hosting our second Annual Variety Show on Friday, October 28th, from 10AM-12PM in the Life Center. Come ready to sing along, laugh and enjoy awesome entertainment from our very own residents and staff.
With only a few events highlighted, please be on the lookout for the monthly synopsis sheet located in your building lobby with ALL the upcoming events on and off campus.
