Happy Thanksgiving!
Dear Brother,
I wish you a very Happy Thanksgiving. The holiday allows us to catch up with family, friends, and brothers. As we celebrate Thanksgiving, let’s take time to reflect on what we are thankful for and the true meaning of the holiday. Let’s be thankful for our ability to render humble service to those in our community. I will spend time serving meals with my chapter brothers from Gamma Lambda.
The Seven Jewels laid down a prophetic roadmap that continues to guide us to this day and I am grateful for their vision. In my travels, I have met so many of you and I am thankful that you have supported my vision to continuously provide a higher level of value to our brothers and our communities in which we serve by maintaining the fraternity’s rightful place as a twenty-first century change agent; guided by our purpose and our mission.
I am thankful for my beautiful wife of 15 years. I am thankful for our brothers in the military and in law enforcement for all of the sacrifices they have made on our behalf. I am thankful for brothers like you who make sacrifices everyday so that there are better days ahead for those we serve. I am thankful that I have so much support from all of you in my campaign to become your 34th General President. I am thankful for being a member of the greatest fraternity in the world.
Happy Thanksgiving!
Fraternally,
Brother Mark S. Tillman,
Candidate for 34th General President of Alpha Phi Alpha Fraternity, Inc.
