Welcome to the first issue of MARvelous Living! I am over the moon about about her debut! I have learned so much about the families in our Region, and I’m thrilled to finally share these stories with you.
A little over a year ago, I was appointed Regional Editor by Regional Director Tiffany Spann-Wilder, with a recommendation from Immediate Past Regional Director Tarcia Flemming. As RE, I had a vision for this publication and knew what it would take to create something our Marvelous Mid-Atlantic Region would be proud of. As a former magazine editor, I have the experience of building a publication from the ground up. It takes dedication, creativity, and a lot of hard work.
So this time around, I once again leaned on my work ethic, a great editorial team, and the grace of God to guide us on this journey.
I’m grateful for my team of Editors who raised their hands and joined me on this journey. Everyone in this organization is busy, but these Moms made the time to do the work. And this first issue is a result of everyone coming together to make it happen!
As you turn these pages and read the stories, I hope you feel as inspired as I do by the incredible talent, dedication, and spirit of our members. Our Moms and Dads are truly making an impact in their communities. Whether they are leading innovative businesses, advocating for social change, or nurturing the next generation of leaders, they are all making their mark in some way. And I’m thankful they agreed to tell their stories here.
MARvelous Living is truly more than a magazine. And I think as you read this issue, you’ll see why.
Thank you for being a part of this journey. Here’s to celebrating our shared achievements and looking forward to many more to come.
Happy Reading!
Cheers,
Bridgette West
