Did you vote?
I hope everyone voted today! Every election is a privilege and responsibility of citizens of the United States of America.
And then there are activist citizens, like you and I. And you and I are meeting for our monthly gathering tomorrow night. If you have concerns about local government and politics, please join us on Wednesday February 3 at 6:30 pm. We will be at St. Cecilia's Family Life Center at 155 N. Main Street in Glen Carbon. The Family Life Center is the building to the left as you enter the church campus.
Hope to see you there.
