Join Munising Memorial Hospital’s Senior Life Solutions this May as we celebrate Mental Health Awareness Month, a time to spread awareness and help break down the stigma surrounding mental illness. We live in a rapidly changing world that can be complex to navigate.

The Munising Moose Lodge has initiated a new breakfast tradition with its First Sunday’s Breakfast, a monthly event spearheaded by the dedicated committee chair, Alethea Madison Shelly. In a recent interview, Alethea illuminated the motivation behind this breakfast and the positive impact it aims to cultivate within the community.

It appears that a man in Topeka, Kansas, decided to write a book about churches around the country. He began his journey by flying to San Francisco and then started working his way eastward. Upon visiting a very large church, he began taking photographs and noticed a golden telephone on the wall with a sign reading “$10,000 a minute.” Curious, he sought out the pastor to inquire about the phone and the sign. The pastor explained that the golden phone was a direct line to Heaven, and for the price, one could speak directly to God. Thanking the pastor, he continued his journey.

Recently, on social media, there have been many dire requests for new volunteers, a necessity to keep our many non-profits running. Munising area is a small community and existing volunteers, many of whom are veterans, are becoming unable to participate; therefore, new volunteers are needed. If you are looking to become involved, Facebook is a good place to start by joining community groups like Munising Informed and others.
