L.U. 654 (i), CHESTER, PA — Our local started the new year off with a special guest: Eagles offensive tackle Lane Johnson, a two-time first-team and second-team All-Pro, five-time Pro Bowler, and Super Bowl LII champion. We were honored to have him in attendance and grateful for the opportunity to hear him speak about his journey.
Lane discussed the important topic of mental health awareness, a subject for which he has advocated throughout his professional career. He spoke about how he became aware of and addressed his issues starting from his college days all the way up to this season. Lane offered pointers for stress management and insight about the signs of depression and how to reach out for help.
It was a great conversation about the mental challenges and hurdles we all face no matter where we are in life. Some members asked questions, and Lane even signed a few autographs. This was a great way to reflect upon the importance of helping others and the role of brotherhood in doing so.
Christopher Schieler, P.S.
