     January 15-16 the Eunah Temple Holden Leadership Fund committee will meet. Checking on finances, this group will verify that all five regional conferences have requested their $1,000 from ETH to help bring a woman speaker from outside the organization to the events. This is a unique committee set up under the terms of Holden's will. Betty Oswald (Mississippi) chairs this group.
