Dear Villagers,
Wishing all our Villagers good health through 2021 and our country an increase in civility and peace for all its people.
And because we must intentionally strive to keep a positive outlook through mid-winter, let's focus on the longer, brighter days ahead, the covid-19 vaccine, and our good fortune to be part of an organization whose members and volunteers care for each other. If you are among the many who feel especially blue through winter or you know someone who does, please take action to help. Here's an article from Brigham and Women's that identifies ways to manage winter depression.
