The Sun Shines on Service this Summer Many EHS students use their summer months to offer time in service to others. Some organizations that have utilized volunteers in the past have been unable to do so under pandemic conditions, so although the needs of our neighbors have remained and even been amplified, opportunities to serve have been limited. That situation is beginning to change and open up again, so we encourage students to find ways to serve others safely this summer! A list, posted on our website here, was sent to our students a couple of weeks ago and is by no means exhaustive. If you know of other local service opportunities this summer, please email Rev. Beth Holden.
