June 9, 2022
Yesterday, I was part of a group of people who were recognized for our anniversaries with Christian Horizons. I vividly remember my first day at work 30 years ago, near Yonge and Steeles in Toronto – the neighbourhood where I worked and lived. Alice, Cameron, Debbie, Elli, Gary, Keith, Manny, and Nigel (yes, 8 people!) lived there, and while some of them have since passed away, the decades-long perspective has allowed me to witness such growth in their lives and experiences that I didn’t think was possible when I first met them. I’m grateful to have been part of their lives.
Last week, we announced the change in the driver’s license requirement. This means we’ll be able to hire a whole new group of people without a driver’s license in the weeks and months ahead. I imagine that some of them will be starting, much like I did, with no expectation that 30 years from now, in 2052, they might be writing a message like this. Hopefully, by then, it won’t be about COVID-19!
Here are this week’s statistics. We continue to pray for the employee who is hospitalized due to COVID-19.
