(From the City of Springfield)Springfield Mayor Ken McClure reflected on the past year in Springfield during his annual State of the City Address this morning, encouraging Springfieldians to engage with their community and with each other.
"Each of us can start now, in our own lives, by strengthening our connections and relationships. Our individual relationships can help us live healthier, more productive, and more fulfilled lives.
"Make time to share a meal or coffee or a glass of lemonade with a neighbor. Turn off your digital devices and really listen. Volunteer in the community. The keys to connection are simple, but extraordinarily powerful," he said.
The yearly address, which comprised the June Good Morning Springfield! program hosted by the Springfield Area Chamber of Commerce, was live-streamed from Evangel University’s Robert H. Spence Chapel.
