February 2013 Newsletter

It gives me great pleasure to think about getting back soon to our monthly meetings after the busyness of the Holidays. I hope you all had a safe and wonderful time. Our Christmas gift boutique was filled with amazing creativity and very generous volunteers who make it two wonderful weekends in December. Thanks to all who participated.

I am aware that not all of us sailed through the Holidays without a struggle with health problems and I pray that you have had lots of hibernating time along with love and support during these winter months. You have been in our thoughts and prayers during this time…
