"Forgiveness - Our Lives & Our Writing"

Fred Hageman, facilitator of our January meeting

Fred Hageman will facilitate our January meeting and lead a discussion on forgiveness. Are we as Christian writers exemplifying this characteristic of Christ? Are we extending it to others? Does it show up in our writing? Does it show up in our writing? Let's consider how we can inspire one another and our readers to practice this key element of our faith.

BOARD OF DIRECTORS: Last month we elected the following officers of DCWA: Candy Abbott, President; Lisa Falkner, Vice President; Judi Folmsbee, Secretary; Betty Kasperski, Treasurer. We also distributed copies of the By-Laws to the members for review to see if anything needs to be updated.

MEETING SCHEDULE FOR 2021: We have requested Tunnell Hall for the third Saturday of every month except for August (our vacation month).

FACILITATORS: We have filled quite a few slots but still need commitments for the months of May, July, and October. Please let me know if you're interested in leading a meeting.

REFRESHMENTS: Candy has the supply bins and would like to pass them along to someone else to bring to each meeting. We haven't identified volunteers to provide monthly refreshments, so if you are planning to attend please bring snacks to share. We can discuss this more on Saturday.

CONFERENCE: The conference we had anticipated hosting in October 2021 has been canceled. Because of COVID-19, planning time has been restricted, and we are praying for God's direction.

Hope to see you on Saturday!
