And so it began…💗💚

Last weekend, Albuquerque set the stage for the 2026 West Texas/New Mexico Cluster Retreat, bringing sisters together as R.E.A.L. Champions for a day of learning, leadership, service, connection, laughter, and sisterhood.

From meaningful conversations to moments of celebration, the retreat reminded us what happens when sisterhood is put into action through service and set the tone for a season grounded in purpose, leadership, service, and sisterhood.✨

A special thank you to our cluster committee for helping make service a meaningful part of our weekend, including our support of Saranam, an organization committed to empowering families experiencing homelessness through housing, education, and supportive community.

We are grateful to our WTNM Cluster Coordinator, Deidré Gordon; the Iota Xi Omega Chapter; Committee Chairman; our presenters; program participants; and every sister who shared her time, talent, and love to make the weekend one to remember.

One retreat down. A season of sisterhood ahead. 💗💚
And we’re just getting started…

SWCTX, are you ready for this weekend? 👀💗💚

October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month.💗

Breast cancer can affect anyone, including the men in our lives. That's why the Sensational South Central Region is showing up as R.E.A.L. Champions for our health and for each other.

Take a look at a few reminders worth saving. Don't wait for something to feel off. Some breast cancers can be found early through screening, before there are any signs. Talk with your healthcare professional about what's right for you.

Then check in with your family and friends. It could make all the difference.💕💚🏆

Pajamas, Pearls, Pink & Green.💕💚✨

A look back at where the WTNM Cluster Retreat started.🏆

They called it a Pink & Green Pajama Party, and the sisters understood the assignment!💅🏾✨

Before the weekend’s work, sisters gathered for fellowship, laughter, and the kind of connection that makes these moments special.

And if this was only the beginning… imagine what’s ahead.👀
