Patty Lewis is Sisterhood president at UHC Terre Haute.
First of all, I want to thank everyone who joined us at Patricia’s baby shower. Everyone was so giving and made the shower special. On March 10, we welcomed my great-grandson Robert!
I received a card, which was a surprise, from Student Rabbi Kylynn Perdue-Bronson, thanking me for inviting her to the shower, but it was our pleasure to have her.
Another year has passed. Generation after generation will repeat the question, “Where did the year go?” and each generation will reflectively ask, “I wonder what kind of life past generations lived?”
But we have work to do to help the the current generation. Borrowed Hearts is a new organization that is working with foster families. They need help from the community.
Sisterhood will collect items for foster families need, such as clothing and personal items. Some of the foster children arrive with no possessions. A greater need exists in the community than many of us may realize.
Another month has passed and as you read this I’m sure you all had a great Thanksgiving with family and friends.
The Hanukkah Gift Shop is stocked with new items for you to select for the holiday. Hanukkah is such a meaningful time of the year.
Here we are in November and before you know it, Hanukkah will be here. I’m hoping to get some new holiday items in the gift shop within a couple of weeks.
Sometimes we just wonder where the time goes. It seems like just yesterday I was raising my three children and now my granddaughter Patricia is expecting my first great-grandson — yes, we know it is a boy.
Turning to Sisterhood business, I would like to hear from all the members to see what you would like to accomplish this year.
