Thank you to all the Sisters who made our Ladies Day special.  May the theme, songs, and message from Sara Reimers be one to remember

- My Sister's Keeper.

Ecclesiastes 4: 9 - 10 - "Two are better than one; because they have a good reward for their labor.

For if they fall, the one will lift-up his fellow: but woe to him that is alone when he falleth; for he hath not another to help him up."

Thank You to the 2019 Co-Leaders: Renee Wharton and Wanda Oliver and the Ladies Day Planning Committee. 

The breakfast and the lunch were abundant and delicious.
