<div dir="auto">Bill, can you attend the January 6 men’s breakfast? Then we can decide how to handle these going forward. </div>

<div dir="auto">Hi Kenji and fellow men’s councilers,<br />
<br />
I’m sorry to hear about your mother’s declining health and I hope that things go as well as hoped.<br />
<br />
Since I’m normally at the men’s breakfast, I can easily be the one to be present at most breakfasts’. That said, since I split weekend time roughly every other weekend at Holly’s house in Lima, I can’t guarantee I can be at every breakfast on the first Saturday. Having said that ( 🙂 ), if we’re in the area on the first Saturday, Holly will attend the first wuumen’s breakfast, also on the first Saturday at 8:30am.<br />
<br />
Whatever works for you Kenji, I’ll typically be at the men’s breakfast. Having a backup attend when I’m out of town would be good. Unless Holly and I are going out of town for an event, I can usually plan to be there.<br />
<br />
Best,<br />
<br />
Bill</div>

<ul style="font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif">
<li style="font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif">Can someone from the council regularly attend the breakfast and report to the council while I handle the announcement part?</li>
