Mt. Diablo Village&nbsp;Lunch and Learn. Bring your lunch, and learn about the return of peregrine falcons from Wally DeYoung. He will talk about how peregrine falcons were nearly extinct in California in the 1970s due to the pesticide, DDT, with only two known nesting pairs remaining. Following a ban on DDT and decades of captive breeding programs by researchers, the population rebounded. Today, more than 400 breeding pairs thrive across the state. The event is free.&nbsp;About Mt. Diablo Village
Mt. Diablo Village is a vibrant, welcoming community for seniors—where friendships grow, independence is supported, volunteers make a difference, and where learning opens doors to new discoveries and possibilities.

At Mt. Diablo Village, neighbors connect, friendships flourish, and support is always nearby so that members can stay comfortably in their homes. We offer a lively mix of programs, engaging speakers, and enjoyable activities that bring joy, learning, and plenty of fun.

God's Gift -- the Creative Imagination&nbsp;"The imagination is the God-spark within you. The only gift of God we can rightly lay claim to in the physical body is the gift of imagination. "If you learn how to use the full powers of the imagination and direct them toward the spiritual exercises, you will be able to find ways around the blocks set up by the mind."
