2014-15 國際扶輪社長八月份 文告

 

親愛的扶輪社友們:

 
  在扶輪,我們把8 月訂為社員及擴展月。我們有充分的理由要在每一個扶輪年度初始時及早提醒自己增加社員人數的重要性:因為增加社員是我們刻不容緩的任務。這也是我們永不停歇的任務。為了繼續服務,扶輪必須不斷成長!

 

  扶輪家庭的重要我們已談了多年。在這個扶輪年度,我不只要把整個扶輪家庭,更要把我們自己的扶輪家庭,列為社員成長的優先目標。我太太Corinna 隨我在扶輪服務37 年之後,終於在去年成為扶輪社員。有一次我們一起參加台灣一個新扶輪社的授證儀式,她跟我說,「我也該加入扶輪了﹗」因此她加入了那個扶輪社。不久,其他許多人也都加入那個扶輪社。現在那個扶輪社有102 位社員,是全台灣第二大的扶輪社。

 
  邀請我們的另一半加入扶輪不只是為了增加社員人數而已。這是面對一個我們有待我們努力的事實:男性扶輪社員人數遠多於女性。當我們引進更多女性到扶輪,我們的扶輪社就越能吸引潛在的女性社員──而且更有生產力。
  今年我們要在扶輪來點新鮮的:增加社員人數支持團隊徽章。這表示,如果你邀請一位新社員進入扶輪,你將獲得一枚特別徽章來搭配你的扶輪齒輪領章( 編註:請參考扶輪月刊2014 年5 月號第20-21 頁「新社員輔導人表彰計畫」)。但是我們都知道社員成長的任務並不是在一位新社員加入時就結束。只有當新社員以作為扶輪社員為樂,從此不想離開扶輪,這時我們的任務才算完成﹗保證使我們的扶輪社是一個有樂趣的地方是社員成長的關鍵之一。
  人們因各種理由進入扶輪,但是他們之所以留下來是因為作為扶輪的一份子有其樂趣。因此我要提醒你們大家要在你的扶輪社及地區找到樂趣。扶輪是建立在此一觀念之上:與朋友一起服務會使我們的服務更有效。所以,讓我們享受我們的扶輪服務、和其他人分享扶輪服務、並且一起光耀扶輪!

2014-15 年度國際扶輪社長

2014-15 RI President’s Message in August 2014

 

DEAR FELLOW ROTARIANS,  

 
 In Rotary, we mark August as Membership and Extension Month. There is a good reason why we remind ourselves of the importance of membership early in every Rotary year: because the job of growing our membership is one that we can never begin too soon. It is also a job that we can never stop working on. In order to keep serving, Rotary always needs to be growing!

 
  We have talked for many years about the importance of the family of Rotary. In this Rotary year, I want to make not just the family of Rotary, but our own Rotary families, a priority in our membership. After 37 years of following me in Rotary, my wife, Corinna, finally became a Rotarian last year. We attended the chartering of a new club in Taiwan together, and she said, “It’s time for me to become a Rotarian too! ” So she joined that club. And soon, so did a lot of other people. Now that club has 102 members, and it’s the second-largest club in Taiwan.
  Inviting our spouses into Rotary isn’t just about getting our numbers up. It addresses the reality that Rotary still has far more men as members than it does women, and that is something we need to work on. When we bring more women into Rotary, our clubs become more appealing to prospective female members – and become more productive as well.
        This year we are going to have something new in Rotary: a membership support team pin.  This means that if you invite a new member into Rotary, you get a special pin to wear with your Rotary gearwheel. But we all know that the job of growing membership doesn’t end when a new member joins. It ends only when a new member is enjoying being a Rotarian and never wants to leave! And making sure that our clubs are enjoyable places to be is a key part of growing membership.

  People come into Rotary for all kinds of reasons, but they stay because Rotary is fun to be a part of. So I want to remind all of you to have fun in your clubs and your districts. Rotary is based on the idea that our service is more effective when we serve together with our friends. So let’s enjoy our Rotary service, share it with others, and Light Up Rotary together!

Gary C.K. Huang President, Rotary

International, 2014-15
