US Surgeon General Benjamin Opens HUSD Convocation

Friends:

It was a pleasure to attend the Opening Service of the HUSD 94th Annual Convocation.
The community prayed together,heard a very uplifting address by Dr. Regina Benjamin and dedicated two paintings by Meseretu Wondie of Ethiopia in honor of the late civil rights lawyer Louis Gilden.

Dr. Benjamin had many good points. One that has stuck with me has to do with what she called ‘leading from the back’–pushing others to the front, encouraging their talents. letting them lead….Isn’t this what we are called to do in our ministry?

Peace,
John
