Beloved Sisters of HAC,

The month of October reminds us how quickly the year has passed.  We have transitioned into the Fall season, and everyone has settled back into their routines at work or school.  The sorority year is in full swing as we engage in various activities.  Our President has asked everyone to dig in and get involved to make this the most productive sororal year as we support our local community and the many Delta programs for our youth.

But, we cannot forget to acknowledge that this is also Breast Cancer Awareness Month.  We stand in solidarity with all Sorors impacted by this disease.  While we celebrate our cancer survivors, we also remember those Sorors who have passed on.  We need to check ourselves to ensure we have scheduled our yearly mammograms.  We also need to check in with those Sorors who may be in the midst of their struggle even today.  This is the perfect time to show our sisterly love towards one another.  Love is not just mere words, but love is shown in our actions.  Romans 12:9-10 says “Love must be sincere. Hate what is evil; cling to what is good.  Be devoted to one another in love. Honor one another above yourselves.”  When we apply God’s Word to our lives, we can become the most loving chapter in the world…Yes, I said the world!

Sorors, as we reflect upon the goodness of God and his abundant blessings, now is the time to unify and build up one another as Sisters in Christ and DELTA.  Let’s “Reset” our thinking, our strategies, our plans, and our actions.  With God, there is nothing we can’t achieve.  And, as we continue to trust God, let’s believe that He can transform our hearts to be loving, sisterly, and respectful to one another all while conducting Delta business with excellence!
