If you are reading this, you made it to the year 2024. I pray that we are all grateful and thankful to God for this precious blessing. Some and perhaps even many of us have loved ones who did not live to see this year. This is more of a reason to be grateful because life can be so short. May this New Year 2024 be one of the best years of your life and of all the lives that you cross your path. Amen.

Reflections:
*Impact by: Nikki Banas
You never really know the true impact you have on others. You never know how much someone needed that smile you gave them. You never know how much your kindness turned someone’s entire life around. You never know how much someone needed that long hug or deep talk. So don’t wait to be kind. Don’t wait for someone else to be kind first. Don’t wait for better circumstances or for someone to change. Just be kind, because you never know how much someone needs it.
***Happy 2024 Everyone! GPigott***
