Our opening luncheon was a great success and all thanks to you wonderful women!
Food included fresh fruit salad, mouth watering rolls with chicken salad and scrumptious brownies, brownies, brownies!
After our Meal we began by hearing about our spotlight for the month, Debbie Buchanan (check back later for more on Debbie) and the Jar Challenge we've given to these fabulous ladies:
The jars have a handful of pennies in them. We took our idea from the "Christmas Jars" by Jason F. Wright. We'll check back over the year to see what good deeds they do with their jars. We wanted to incorporate our theme "Small Changes make a Big Difference" (change, haha, get it?) in a practical way that the women of our society could see. Best of luck with your Penny Jars!
We also introduced the recipient of our student scholarship for this year: Jessica Sorensen. Congrats Jessica! This scholarship was made possible through our Auction & Bake Sale last year so be sure to participate this year!
We also had a drawing for our September Give Away: The Seventeen Second Miracle by Jason F. Wright. Yes we are definitely Wright fans. Wright touches again on our theme of Small Changes. Read it! It's amazing!
Lastly we heard from our President, Andrea Seegmiller, about her experiences with small changes and the big differences they've made through her life.
Afterward we mingled, worked together to clean up and caught up with each other.
Thanks to all who came and helped! Remember the challenge to SMILE more this month and bring a friend to our next activity. Stay tuned for more spotlights, news and info on our upcoming events!
