Dear Sisters in Christ,
As I pen this letter to you on the eve of the Epiphany my prayer for each of you is happiness and health in the New Year. I look forward to “seeing” each of you at one of our Regional meetings starting the end of January. All Regional meetings will be held on the Zoom platform. There will be three meetings: January 30 (for members in the southern part of our Assembly), February 13th (middle part of our Assembly), and February 27th (northern part of our Assembly). In this manner, we will be able to fellowship with those Daughters in closer proximity to each other and be inclusive of our Daughters-at-Large. I realize the particular Saturday meeting for your area may not be convenient in which case I would encourage you to attend any meeting that works in to your schedule. We want as much participation as possible and this is your time to share your successes and concerns with others. Meetings will begin at 9:30 am with a time of fellowship followed by a devotion and prayer with Chaplain Janet Echols. There will be a short time for the business of the Assembly and the remainder of the meeting will be a time for sharing.
As this is a Zoom format, registration will be necessary to protect the security and integrity of the gatherings. Please register online here . Once you are registered you will receive an email with the sign-in information for your particular session, this email will arrive a few days before your session.
In closing I leave you with this anonymous piece I saw on the internet that sums up our lives quite nicely. Ladies (and gentlemen); Welcome aboard Flight #2021. We are preparing for an on-time departure into the New Year. Please make sure your Attitude and Actions are secured and locked in an upbeat & right position. All self-destructive thoughts should be turned off at this time and remain off forever. Any negativity, hate and discouragement must remain completely stowed. In the likely event we lose Altitude while under pressure, simply reach up and pull down a Prayer. Prayers will automatically activate if you have Faith. With this Faith you will be able to assist other passengers. There will be NO BAGGAGE allowed on this flight. The Captain (GOD of course) has cleared us for takeoff. Our first destination is Love with continuing stops at Peace and Joy. Before you deplane make sure you don’t leave any of your Hopes and Dreams behind. Once these are lost, they can not be reclaimed. If there’s anything we can do to make your flight more enjoyable, please do the same by paying it forward. We wish you a pleasant flight! Have a Happy New Year!!! Let’s put 2020 behind us!!!! Make It a Better 2021!
