9th Annual Conference Keynote

Rev. Dr. Donna Cox was with us as the keynote for this year's conference.  Dr. Cox spoke about the importance of women balancing between "being" and "doing."

As a conference at a Catholic and Marianist institution, the Christian references with which Dr. Cox referenced (the story of Mary and Martha from the book of Luke in the Bible), anyone could relate to the message Dr. Cox delivered.  She reminded us that women must be mindful to pause and purposely MAKE the time to rest and rejuvenate.

Thanks to Dr. Cox for the reminder and the challenge to balance the draw to "do" with the wisdom to "be."

The 9th Annual Conference

Thank you to all of those who took the time to attend the 9th Annual Annie T. Thornton Women's Leadership Conference.  Our theme this year was "Women, Community, Action and Leadership." We do not take your support of the mission of the conference and your endeavor to gain information lightly.

One of the initiatives that surfaced from the conference was the creation of this listserv/blog.  We will use this sight to pass on information that we consider in line with the concerns, issues, and the celebration of women.

Feel free to join this listserv and respond to posts or submit posts at atwlc@notes.udayton.edu.

We hope that you will consider this listserv and the conference as a whole good company on your journey.

With you in mission,

The ATWLC
