NEW MEMBER INDUCTION CEREMONY - MAY 12 2016

Four new members were inducted into Emmaus Rotary Club at our May 12, 2016 meeting. J.P. Raynock, chairman of the Membership Committee, led the meeting.

J.P. led the club in an a capella version of “R-O-T-A-R-Y” and presented “This is Rotary” – a four minute video which outlined the work of Rotary around the world in feeding the hungry, conquering disease, teaching children and promoting peace.

J.P. then invited each new member’s sponsor to introduce the new members. Bob Goehler introduced Sheryl Hawk (Director of Development at The Hillcrest School), Jerry Friedman introduced Valerie Deneen (a digital publisher, social media leader and head of Inner Child Fun Media, LLC), J.P. introduced Nicole Steirer (manager of the ESSA Bank & Trust branch in Albertis) and Rick Zayaitz introduced Cara Bedford (Sales Representative with Paychex).

Following the introductions, each new member received their new member information packet, membership certificate and Rotary pin from J.P. And, Don Blose presented the new members with their EMMAUS ROTARY WORKS t-shirts.

J.P. then discussed the Four Way Test including historical facts about the concise, twenty-four word test authored by Herbert Taylor in the 1930’s which is used by Rotarians worldwide as a moral code for personal and business relationships. The meeting closed with the club reciting the Four Way Test and the Pledge of Allegiance.
