ANNUAL STATE MEETING

Kentucky AMI welcomes Raelene Hill, National AMI President and Kimberley Shelton, National Young Mother for 2008 to Louisville, KY. Raelene shared a message of JOY in Motherhood through all stages of life ...



Hearing from our National President, Raelene Hill!
Jennifer Hancock sang "Who Are You", a most beautiful musical number as intermission between Raelene and Heather Deshler. We were all touched by the words of the song and the sweet spirit she brought to the meeting.


These ladies made the meeting so special.

Pearl did a great job at being the Auctionaire!
We were very sad that John Foe and Russ Morgan are in the hospital. We missed their vibrant personalities at the meeting, however Pearl Taylor did an excellent job filling their shoes as the auctionaire. We made $133 in the auction.
