Happy Holidays!

The end of the year is a time of year for remembrance. We take stock of where we came from, and have a moment to think about where we are going...

At this special time of year, we give thanks for editors like you who have made our Mission easier and our lives more fulfilling.

May your New Year be all that you hope for, and may it be sprinkled with love and friendship.

Best Wishes!
