Dear Sisters of HAC,
April is a transitional month, signaling the arrival of spring in many parts of the world, with warmer temperatures and longer daylight hours.  Remember the old saying, “April Showers bring May Flowers”.   Along with showers, April is a month rich in diverse awareness and heritage celebrations, including Earth Day, World Autism Acceptance Day, National Minority Health Month, National Stress
Awareness Month and in the UK, National Pet Month.   April 2025 is also the month that we come together to cast our votes to elect new officers for this biennial.

Sorors, let us use April as our opportunity to shower each other with the Love of God which leads to respect for all, honoring God in all that we do. This Love is not just an emotion but a commitment to follow God’s teaching and principles.  Ephesians 4:32 says “Be Ye kind one to another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, even as God for Christ’s sake hath forgiven you. This calls for believers to be compassionate, gentle, and loving towards each other, showing empathy and understanding in their interactions.  We are a force to be reckoned with when we come together as one. Let us continue to work together to make a difference and enrich the lives of those we serve. By continuing to unite our efforts, we can accomplish great things because “Teamwork makes the Dream Work!”

“Dear Lord, thank you for my Sorors. Bless us individually and collectively. Help us to see beauty in diversity and to celebrate the unique gifts each of us brings. May our actions reflect the love and unity you desire, and may we be instruments of peace and harmony in our community. In Jesus’ Name, Amen.” May God Bless and Keep you today and Always.
