WHAT A TERRIFIC DAY!!!
We were so blessed to have Martha Lanier come to speak to us yesterday. It was a much anticipated event that turned out to be even better than our expectations! Martha spoke to us from her heart about facing her fears, having a plan, and how to make lemonade when life throws you lemons.
Attendance was high- as I expected we had a crowd of about 60! What an accomplishment for us for only our sixth meeting! I was so proud to see all of the new faces, as well as the familiar ones. Thank you for everyone who came to make today such a success. It isn't MY meeting..it's YOUR meeting! Together...we help each other grow.
I was proud to introduce our Founders Committee Members. These ladies have helped me grow the group into the success we are experiencing. Please get to know these ladies and feel free to contact them with questions or ideas you may have concerning the group.
We were so proud to present Martha with a check for our fundraising efforts in the amount of $783.00! This money was to kickstart her 2009 "2 Day Walk" Campaign. Martha was not expecting this, and was clearly in awe and total suprise. Thank you to everyone who contributed to this effort.
I heard nothing but praise from everyone about how wonderful Martha was, and although I can speak for the group I thought it would be so much more inspiring if some of you would send her a card personally. Her address is:
Martha Lanier
4990 Magnolia Creek Drive
Cumming, GA 30040
Let’s let her know how much we appreciate her gift to us, and hope to be able to have her back again sometime next year.
Again, thank you to everyone who took time out from your busy day to come and be with us. And thank you to the ones who brought guests with you as well. Congratulations to Sandra Glass on her win for the beach condo in Destin! Sandra, you have earned this one!
I hope that we all came away with a new outlook, a new perspective, and a renewed hope in our souls that we are going to Rise and Shine in 2009! Networking works if you work it! I look forward to seeing you all in November!
Please post your comments here, and I will forward this site to Martha!
Sincerely and from my heart…
Kimberly
