Myra has joined the Grant Park Dwell house and is part of the Young Adult Volunteer (YAV) program of the Presbyterian Church (USA). Myra is not new to our ministries at DOOR; she served on our summer staff last summer and lived in our Capitol View Dwell house. This past year she worked at Calvin Center, the Presbytery of Greater Atlanta’s Camp and Conference Center. One of Myra’s favorite ministries while on summer staff was The Friendship Center at Holy Comforter Episcopal Church. She is now serving at that ministry for the next year through our Dwell program. Myra says that “throughout my life I want to serve because I believe it is one’s responsibility as a human on earth to give back and help other fellow human beings. The only way to feel alive is to spread compassion and kindness where there is suffering and pain in the world. There is a common unity that forms around healing and helping others.”
