Dear Awesome Members,

I hope this message finds each of you in good spirits despite the challenging times we've been facing. I must apologize for the delay in getting our newsletter to you – it seems the days have been as short as they are dark, with too many of our loved ones passing on under difficult circumstances. It's been a time of reflection and mourning, attending more memorials than meetings.

Yet, in the midst of this darkness, I find a spark of hope that compels us to act. It's that resilient light at the end of the tunnel, reminding us of our purpose and our mission. We are not just bystanders; we are participants in shaping a brighter future. Our efforts to elect sound Republican leaders are more than necessary; they're imperative for restoring a sense of normalcy and justice that feels so distant now.

How do we navigate these troubling times? By doing exactly what we are doing – attending meetings, vetting our candidates, fighting for our safety, and preserving our values. Moreover, we hold onto our faith, a faith that calls for divine intervention and common sense in our future decisions.

The challenges are many: compromised borders, unchecked human trafficking, and a landscape of political upheaval that seems to turn our values on their heads. It's bizarre – the redefinitions, the policies that defy logic, the shifting paradigms that would have bewildered even our founding fathers.

Yet here we stand, undeterred. We're not just fighting for an America of today but for an America of tomorrow – one that will stand proud for its common sense and foundational values. It might feel like moving a mountain one spoon at a time, but if we each take up our spoon, imagine the mountains we can move!

So, let’s roll up our sleeves and keep pushing forward. It’s what we do best because we care deeply about the legacy we leave behind. Our commitment to this cause will define the America that we know can exist once again – an America where common sense isn't just expected, but celebrated.

Thank you all for your continuous support and dedication. Together, we are not just hoping for a better future; we are building it.

With heartfelt gratitude and unstoppable resolve,

Beverly Granillo

President, Yavapai County Republican Women
