-- TO MY FRIENDS --
The power and influence of our voices is truly remarkable!*
It is my fervent hope that those in positions of responsibility
can speak confidently and with a voice that is vibrant
and full of invigorating energy!
Let us impart hope and courage in the hearts of our friends and fellow members,
and ignite a flame of confidence and conviction!
