Rotary Club of Sedona Village supports “Mitzvah Day” here in Sedona and the Verde Valley
Mitzvah (Good Deed) Day
An intergenerational, interfaith, spirit-led day of service to our communities and neighbors 10th Anniversary
Rotary Club of Sedona and Rotary Club of Sedona Village Satellite were invited to have their members participate in the 10th Annual Mitzvah here in Sedona. So many members did just that this past Sunday. Danielle and I along with our son joined the Gardens of Humanity in helping build a garden at the Sedona Red Rock High School. It was a simply beautiful day in Sedona and a great day with my family and neighbors as we gathered at St. Andrews Episcopal Church to check in for our projects. We then were treated to Mitzvah Day T-shirts along water and food to bring with us as we volunteered at our individual projects. For our family that project was the above mentioned garden building project. We look forward to next years Mitzvah Day!! For further information please visit the following website.
