September 20th at noon -- Maurice Jones, President and Publisher of The Virginia-Pilot

**Note:  please RSVP by September 10th**
September’s speaker for the South Hampton Roads Leadership Prayer Luncheon is Maurice Jones, who became President and Publisher of the Virginian-Pilot in early 2008. He has worked for 5 years with Landmark Communications. Maurice earned his Juris Doctor from the University of Virginia School of Law in 1992, where he was a Hardy Cross Dillard Scholar, and directed an elementary school tutoring program during his time there. In 1988, he received a Master of Philosophy in International Relations from Oxford University, where he was a Rhodes Scholar. His concentrations were Strategic Studies and International Political Economy, and his thesis focused on US/Haiti relations. As an undergraduate student at Hampden-Sydney College, he spent 2 years directing a tutoring program at Prince Edward County High School, and was student government president, Phi Beta Kappa, and valedictorian of his class.

Maurice grew up listening to the gospel songs his grandmother, Mrs. Rosa Hatchett, loved to sing. One of her favorites includes the lines: “Nobody told me that the road would be easy. I don’t believe He brought me this far to leave me,” and she would often tell Maurice, “Never quit.” He wrote, “Grandma’s song invites us to refuse to be defeated, to be resilient. As long as we don’t quit: employers will start hiring again; people will resume buying houses; banks will make more loans; roads, schools and water quality will improve; and the recession will end.” Maurice is an elder at First Presbyterian Church and sings in the choir. He is married to Lisa and they have one daughter, Michela.

Tom Knox, Founder & CEO, Seniorcorp, Inc.

will speak on

Courageous Faith in an Uncertain World

Tom Knox has dedicated his life to helping seniors after watching his beloved grandparents suffer needlessly in their senior years. He vowed to Change the Way America Ages to help families avoid the overwhelming pitfalls of caring for loved ones and navigate the long-term care system, while keeping them at home. Seniorcorp has over 300 local employees and provides innovative healthcare services to clients nationwide. Tom decided in 2003 to leave his career and start out a company from scratch with very little capital or knowledge of the healthcare field.

Tom attended Allegheny College, George Mason University, and Oxford University. Upon graduation, Tom worked in the Japanese school system and then joined an international real estate company in Tokyo, Japan. Before entering the healthcare field, Tom served as the Director of Sales and Operations for DISHNETWORK and then as the Senior Vice President for the Christian Broadcasting Network, he also served as Chairman on the Board of Trustees at Regent University. Tom and his wife have five children and reside in Virginia Beach.
