Meet Michael, a VNA Hospice volunteer living out his dream.

Michael has been volunteering with VNA Hospice since 2008. He visits patients and their families and offers invaluable companionship and support when they need it most.

Michael first felt called to be a chaplain while in seminary. Now through his volunteer work, he says he feels that he’s living out his dream.

His favorite part? The fellowship and camaraderie with people.
