SUMMARY:Save a Life\, Sponsor a Family from Ukraine
DESCRIPTION:Join Live Oak Friends\, in person or online\, on Sunday\, May 12 at 9:20am to hear a special Zoom presentation by North America for Ukraine (NA4U)\, a volunteer-led organization that works to help Ukrainians seeking refuge connect with approved Americans who can sponsor them.\nIt has been two years since Russia’s invasion of Ukraine\, and millions of Ukranians still face the daily threat of violence\, as well as freezing temperatures\, inadequate shelter\, heat and other supplies. Thousands of families have been forced to leave everything behind in search of safety and tens of thousands more are waiting for the opportunity. \n\nThere are two ways you can help Ukrainian families through sponsorship:\n\n 	\nA paper-sponsor is someone who only submits the paperwork to USCIS while the refugee lives with a verified host\, usually a family member or friend. \n\n 	\nA hosting sponsor provides accommodations and assistance with travel and filing necessary paperwork. Ukrainians are eligible to work immediately upon arrival and realistically may need housing support for 3-6 months while they establish themselves. \n\n\nNA4U has proudly helped thousands of families connect with sponsors but we are in dire need of more.

SUMMARY:Restoration\, Renewal & Regeneration
DESCRIPTION:Restoration and Renewal are somewhat synonymous activities\, and Regeneration in the case of nature seems to occur when damage ceases and nature can then continue its process.  Here on Earth\, with our modern civilization that is now so huge that it has such a significant effect on nature\, scientists are sounding the alarm and people are responding.  Steve Stelzer\, as the former program director (now retired) at Houston’s Green Building Resource Center has been exposed to many points of view while at the center\, and will point out some issues to be aware of while deciding how to engage in these three categories\, and give suggestions for resources to develop a best approach. Time for interactive Q&A with the speaker will be provided. Please register for this talk on www.eventbrite.com at https://www.eventbrite.com/e/restoration-renewal-regeneration-tickets-875537144167. This program will be recorded and the recording distributed to all registrants. Contact Lisa Brenskelle at gcs.lrc@gmail.com with any questions. \n
