welcome to the New Year

by Ashanti Raysor

As we settle into the beginning of a new year, this is also a time to retrain our minds, bodies, and souls for the opportunities that lie ahead. A new year invites reflection, growth, and renewed purpose. Some of you may have started working toward your New Year’s resolutions well before the calendar turned—hats off to you. Others may just be getting started, and that is just as powerful. What matters most is continuing to push forward toward whatever goals you are seeking and remaining committed to your own growth. 

In our previous holiday newsletter, I encouraged us to reflect on the lessons of faith and love for thy neighbor. As we move into this new year, let us carry those values with us—showing compassion, patience, and grace not only to others, but also to ourselves. May this year be one of intention, resilience, and meaningful connection as we continue striving to be our best selves.
