Official Visit # 32, East El Paso
September 18, 2012
This is a club that has look at adversity and climbed from that
adversity to build a wonderful and exciting club on the foundation of that
adversity. I found this club to be very
warm and welcoming. I was received openly
and very welcoming.
As I arrived early, I found several new members and had the
opportunity to visit with them and spend time finding out exactly what they see
in the club and why they felt the urge to join.
I found that they were using Rotary as an avenue to fill their
individual need to serve. This club has
members that truly want to serve and truly want to be part of something bigger
than them.
This was the first club that had a heckler in the group. I honestly took delight in the banter that occurred. The club seemed to enjoy the
interaction. I can’t wait to attend this
member’s worship service. As he is a
pastor, I had thoughts of attending and affording the same interaction, but
then I put the “4-Way Test” to it and saw that I couldn’t do that. Sometimes it’s just hard being a
Rotarian. I love it, don’t you?
