What a wonder-filled weekend with the Providence Associates! The time was filled with hugs and laughter. Our sisters in leadership were warmly greeted during the business meeting and had the opportunity to meet and greet. Thanks to Amy for capturing the moments in photos!
Oh WOW/awesome pictures! Thanks for sharing I so enjoyed seeing so many pictures of familiar faces. I have sure missed seeing all of you.
My love

Wonderful seeing all the friendly faces and many new ones too! Great “coming home” again and basking in the quiet beauty of the Woods. Always a treat. Much love! 💕
