Branch 40 Martins Ferry, OH Branch 349 Weirton, WV by Joyce Nicholson Hello from the WPA branches in Martins Ferry and Weirton. The William Penn Association General Convention was a wonderful event. I am so thankful for the opportunity that was given me to be in attendance and involved in this important and significant occasion in the life of WPA. I will work to the best of my abilities to be a National Director worthy of your faith and trust in the position. Thank you to everyone. I look forward to this service. This month, I'd like to shine the spotlight on another of our branches' projects this year. Recently, we donated a Chinese auction basket to the GFWC Wintersville Women's Club for their annual fundraiser event. Barbara Thermes (pictured right) accepts the basket from me with much appreciation. We hope everyone had a heartwarming Thanksgiving holiday with family or friends. As Christmas quickly approaches and 2015 comes to a close, we want to take this opportunity to thank everyone who helped throughout the year with all things WPA, from Join Hands Day to picnics, outings, meetings and parties. Our branches were very busy all year. We are grateful to be able to be of assistance to many of our local community projects, events, fundraisers, and people-inneed while having a great time with fellowship, too. As we look forward to 2016, we wish everyone a blessed Christmas and a Happy New Year filled with love, peace and good health.
