Dear Women of the Guild,

Just when you thoughttriple vaxed would do the trick, sour dough bread- starters were dead and colored hair was back in fashion … Covid throws us another curve ball called Omicron, dominating the conversation and begging the question: When will life get back to normal? Unfortunately, there’s no clear answer but one thing is certain: we’re learning how to recalculate. Pivot. Focus on what’s important.

To kick off the new year, the Guild community will come together on Saturday, January 22nd to explore how to draw from one's own “Spiritual Toolbox” to find healing, joy and unity through prayer. Join us for a little bit of peace during during these challenging times!

And on Tuesday February 15th, we’ll let our hair down a bit for an evening of cocktails and conversation on how to “reimagine” one’s wardrobe through the expertise of Melissa Carter of KAMEO VINTAGE. Mark your calendar for a fantastic, February night of fun, fashion & surprises!

Please read on for more details and find what’s important to you. We hope you can join us!

Happy New Year, Stay Well & God Bless!

Meals on Wheels

We are always looking for volunteers to serve as substitute drivers when one of our regular drivers is unable to drive. It is a simple way to help those in our community who are unable to shop and prepare food for themselves.

If you are interested in helping out, please email Laura Sorensen at laurasorensen@comcast.net. Thank you for your help!
