Merry CHRISTmas!

December 17, 2020 By Trina Boice Leave a Comment

We want to thank you for making LDSPMA a part of your busy life by being a member and sharing your creative talents with others.

This year has been a pretty crazy one, so the light you shine in the dark world has been especially important. We’re constantly amazed by all of the things you’re doing to make the world a better place.

We hope you feel our love for you as we create events and services to help you grow your professional talents and business. More important, we hope you feel the Savior’s love during this Christmas season.

We have some VERY exciting new developments for 2021 that we’ll tell you about in January! Until then, we wish you a very Merry CHRISTmas and a Happy New Year!
