It was wonderful to see the Raessler's holiday decorations on full display! Their Christmas tree was adorned with beautiful ornaments, each with a special story as to why it was treasured and honored with a dedicated place on the tree.
Deborah Raessler orchestrated a wonderful program! Mary Kay Durbin and Deborah played the piano in the living room, as we sang Christmas carols. (Each sister had been asked to take an ornament from her Christmas tree to the gathering, where she would be invited to share why it was special to her.) As we heard each sister share memories connected to her treasured ornament, we could feel our bond of sisterhood strengthening.
The chapter meeting was chock full of exciting news, as always. We so appreciate our officers' imaginative, creative leadership! Exciting things are planned for 2024!
Our P.E.O. Chapter JI continues to be Just Incredible! 💗
