College Women's Club November Luncheon
From the CWC President (Dr. Shirley Stallworth):
Will you spend that time harboring bitterness over things that you are powerless to change?
Life doesn’t have a pause button. Life is just life. We have two options in the midst of life’s uncertainties and surprises. We can filter our view of God through our ever changing circum-stances or we can filter our circumstances through broken frameworks which have closed many doors.
The universe has its own equation for life, simply expressed “What goes around, comes around”. Why not bring love back to you by giving love. Why not want more for others than you want for yourself and then begin to experience abundance. I am sure that our testimonies of circular experiences can fill any room. One surprising experience is that no pain is wasted.
"No pain that we suffer, no trial that we experience is wasted. It ministers to our education, to the development of such qualities as patience, faith, fortitude and humility. All that we suffer and all that we endure especially when we endure it patiently, builds up our characters, purifies our hearts, expands our souls, and makes us more tender and charitable, more worthy to be called the children of God . . . and it is through sorrow and suffering, toil and tribulation that we gain the education that we come here to acquire and which will make us more like our Fa-ther and Mother in heaven." -Orson F. Whitney
Find your place of peace and be thankful!
Dr. Shirley Stallworth, President

Parking: Here are some facts and tips about the new parking situation:
- The Dayton Woman's Club's "hands are tied" concerning the parking lot in the back left of the Dayton Woman's Club as a new company has purchased the lot for employee parking.
- Parking tokens for the First Baptist Church on the corner adjacent to the new condos are available for purchase for $3.00 from the Dayton's Women's Club - see Heather.
- I have asked Sandy Mefford to add an item to her reservations form which says "Severely Handicapped" which gives Sandy a heads up as to how many "Orange Parking" cones to ask TDWC to reserve for TDWC parking lot.
- If you arrive at TDWC early and you are not handicapped please park in the First Baptist Church lot or surrounding lots close to the DWC building as previously recommended.
- If you ride with someone who has some mobility problems but can walk without assistance please drop them off close to the front door of DWC as I do with my passenger.
