reetings Sorors,

Spring has sprung and our ideas of and dedication to service is ever-blooming! The
Montgomery (AL) Alumnae Chapter has been busy all year spreading seeds of advoca-
cy, hope, encouragement, determination and support throughout our service area.

Though we devote so much time and energy on serving others, we did pause during Sisterhood Month Inside The
to enjoy each other! The lunches and dinners were filled to capacity with members breaking bread and Torch
gave the opportunity for sorors to catch up with each other. Thanks to all that were able to worship Chaplain’s 2
with me and my church family. The spirit is always in the house, but it was more spirited with my sis- Corner
ters! Kudos to the Membership Services Committee for organizing these very special events.

Even though the month was filled with Sisterhood Month and chapter activities, sorors participated in Sisterhood 3-5
Month 2019
legislative events in the nation’s capital as well as the state capital. Four members of the chapter trav-
eled to Washington D.C. to attend the 30th Delta Days at the Nation’s Capital and several members Sister Circle 6
attended the Alabama Delta Days at the Capital (DDAC). The Chapter served as host to two very in-
formative public panel discussions during DDAC. The two events laid the ground work for the organiza- Delta Days in 7
tion’s advocacy agenda. the Nation’s

More than fifty (50) members attended the Delta Internal Development Workshop on Roles and Respon- Exodus 8
sibilities. The presenter did a phenomenal job providing information that aligns with the current chap- Committee
ter structure. Evaluations indicate the time invested was well spent. Approximately sixty (60) traveled Community 9
to Huntsville to the 2019 Alabama State Cluster and were able to engage in several developmental train- Health and
ing sessions to further expand our “Delta knowledge base”. Resource Fair
