President Sheryl VanderWagen writes,

"Christ is in our midst! He is and always shall be!

I am looking forward to the coming year for the Midwest Antiochian Women. We have a lot to accomplish this year. We had a good meeting at the Parish Life Conference in Cleveland in June. And in July, I was privileged to attend the NAB meeting in Chicago. We also had a successful luncheon in Cleveland and I would like to express my appreciation to the Linda Simon and the ladies of St. George, Cleveland who worked so hard to make it a success."
