A Note from the Regent

I want to thank all of the ladies that came to the October Meeting. I would like for our members to remember and practice our Motto, Unity, Charity and Love toward our fellow sisters. Try to improve the good in everybody and ignore, with love, all shortcomings.

BE POSITIVE.

Calling Tree Apology

I sincerely want to apologize to all the ladies that were on the calling tree committee, but I didn’t get all the ladies that were on the Calling Tree.

Somehow, I didn’t print the entire list of names for the calling tree when it was transferred to me via e-mail from Susanne.

 

I am so very sorry; I missed a few ladies. I will be calling you to find out

if you will still be on the Calling tree. Please give me a little time.

Prayer for the Beginning of the Day

O Lord, grant me to greet the coming day in peace, help me in all things to rely upon your holy will. In every hour of the day, reveal your will to me. Bless my dealings with all who surround me. Teach me to treat all that comes to throughout the day with peace of soul and with firm conviction that your will governs all. In all my deeds and words, guide my thoughts and feelings. In unforeseen events, let me not forget that all are sent by you. Teach me to act firmly and wisely, without embittering and embarrassing others. Give me strength to bear the fatigue of the coming day with all that it shall bring. Direct my will, teach me to pray. And you, yourself, pray in me. Amen.
