The LLC (ladies literary club) held our end-of-the-year luncheon meeting. It took place in an Art Gallery, so we were surrounded by lovely creations. Hopefully, that made for some good pictures! (thanks to NH)!
Part of the luncheon activity involves a "changing of the guard", passing the gavel, or in this case, passing of the bell to the next president, and other officers. I am the recording secretary for the upcoming season. That will keep me busy.
In addition, I will also serve on the Archives Committee. That committee reviews all the papers given over the course of the year (approximately 25 or so) and selects which ones will be added to the archives. Only two are selected. I am very thrilled to report that my paper was one of the two! The title was "Psychology and Faith" and it was based on the book The Road Less Traveled by M.Scott Peck. The theme for the year was to choose a book that was very influential, or a memorable book, or a favorite book, to provide an opportunity for the members to better get to know one another. The parts of that book paralleled my own spiritual and life journey.
The other paper was about a family's commitment to "Living the Good Life", or being responsible stewards of the land. This family remodeled an old barn and grew much of their own food.
The authors of both of those papers wove together the material in a book with the events in their lives.
I came home and wrote my first press release, which I just cut out of the paper. It seems to have been printed word for word. I managed to stay within the word count limit.
We have off for the summer and do not meet again until the fall picnic in September. The new program year has us exploring a variety of aspects of 'O, Canada'.
