It was
Clergy Recognition Day and the tables were full. Prez Diane
Della Valle welcomed everyone. Then Ed Moulton led the opening
song, God Bless America. Ken Lowe had the veterans salute while
the rest of us put our hands over our hearts as we all gave our
Pledge of Allegiance to this great USA. Rev. Bruce Johnson gave
the invocation.

The Prez
then gave the floor to Ted Ashby from the Eagle Rock Club.
Ted
presented Daryal Gant with a Certificate of Appreciation from
the Mayor of Dinuba for his year as Kiwanis Lt. Governor. Ted
told the amusing story of how many times the certificate was
reprinted before Dinuba finally spelled Daryal's name correctly.

with and programs for the youth of our community.

Clergy for Clergy Appreciation Week
We learned a
lot and it was great to find out so many groups are working to
make Growing Up in LCF a safe, healthy and spiritual
experience. Thank you, Charles, for bringing all these special
people together.
