Paul Holje, local architect and Library Building Committee member, shared wonderful insight in today’s Grand Forks Herald with a Viewpoint regarding our obligation as stewards.
Here’s a preview of Paul’s perspective:
Each generation is called upon to be stewards. We are asked to think not only of the people who have come before us, but what will happen many generations after us. Our actions will ripple through the community long after we have left this earth. Personally, I choose to make Grand Forks better than I found it. That’s what stewardship is all about.
I don’t want our great grandchildren asking why their great grandparents abandoned their Library. I don’t want them asking why we gave up on the over 100-years of Library Legacy.
