CREATED WOMAN LAUNCHES INTO 2013
EDITOR’S NOTE December 2012 Newsletter R
ed Starbucks coffee cups, crisp air brushing against your face and the sound of Christmas music in the background stirs one to reminisce about the past year and gaze brightly into the next. December is the time to celebrate with friends and family as the year comes to a close. Whether 2012 contains memories of joy or heartache, a new year always brings hope of what’s to come! It’s with joy the cast of writers, photographers, editors, stylist, & more remember 2012 and look forward to what’s in store for 2013. But mostly, we celebrate the cast of women who have been encouraged & empowered to be all they were designed to be by simply discovering Created Woman Magazine. This is a true blessing and what inspires us to continue the journey. We hope you enjoy the journey of becoming and being the woman you were created to be!

INSIDE/OUT
The Birth Of A Dream
M ost little girls have dreams of what
they want to be when they grow up. My dream was to be a school teacher. While waiting to become of age, I practiced on my dogs. Judy and Diane had to sit in chairs for hours while I taught them the three R’s. Finally, at the age of 21, I walked into a class room with 25 live teenagers staring me in the face. Scared? Yes, but a dream had come true that had been on the inside of me for years. In Fall of 2013, Created Woman Magazine will reach the news stands for its very first print publication. It is all because Heather Frierson, along with a team who worked diligently with her, gave birth to a dream.
Your birth will also encourage women, while living out their destiny, to keep their focus on what really matters: family, friends, and health. What dream is on the inside of you? Just as the birth of Created Woman Magazine is a dream come true, yours can be, too. Remembers the words Gabriel said to Mary when he appeared to her announcing she would give birth to our Savior, Jesus Christ: “You are highly favored, you are blessed among women, and with God all things are possible.” (Luke 1)
There is a dream within you just waiting to be birthed!
CREATED WOMAN MAGAZINE --- Welcome to the world! Your birth will be a platform for women to share their life’s story and experiences as they encourage others to discover their own identity and become all God created them to be.
