Here to help you connect during PCS season
Dear Sisters in Christ,
Where are you reading our May issue of the Well? Will the June or July issue you find you somewhere completely different?
I am writing at my desk in El Paso but there is a good chance that my June and July letters will be written from the road during family vacation and other travel this summer. Lucky for my family, this isn’t a PCS year for us, but for so many military families, this will be another season of packing up, saying goodbye, and making a new home in a new place.
During these busy times — whether for family vacations, work travel, or military moves — MCCW wants to help you stay connected, united, and inspired!
If you will be traveling through military towns this summer, use MCCW’s social media to reach out to the local Catholic chapel or CWOC and see if you can meet up for a quick connection while you are in town!
If you are PCSing this summer, check out the introductions of our new regional teams so you can get connected to all the great things going on in your new region! These ladies are ready and excited to serve you! And use our social media communities to connect with the Catholic women at your new duty station — they are waiting with open arms to welcome you to your new home!
Our Southeast, Europe, and Asia teams are working hard on plans for fall retreats — start planning now to unite or reunite with your friends in those regions (see the ad on page ** for details!)
And if you need reading material to keep you entertained and inspired during your travels this summer — check out the book review in this issue or visit www.mccw.org for more summer reading ideas!
As for my travels this summer – I am hoping to visit many chapel communities while on the road for MCCW and with my family — hope I can connect with many of you in-person soon!
Yours in Christ,
Kim
