Hi, Girls!

We absolutely love getting mail from you! Whether it’s snail mail, email or Facebook comments, we count it an honor to hear from you. And guess what! We take what you have to say seriously.

Bazillions of you have asked for more pages in the magazine, and—create your own drumroll here—we’re giving them to you! We hope you’re as excited as we are. Beginning with this very issue, you now have more pages. More to chew on. More to think about. More to help you draw closer to Christ. More to share with your friends.

You’ve also told us that you’re spending more and more time online, and we’re right there with you! Stay tuned for more digital fun in 2012—new ways to connect, interact, and grow the SUSIE Sisterhood with you and your friends!

To make all this possible, you’ll now be receiving two SUSIE issues at once—a dual issue. This is January/February. Be sure to log on to SUSIEMag.com between issues for web-only bonus articles, updates, blogs and contests. SUSIEMag.com is there to encourage and challenge you and your friends in the Online Sisterhood every day of the week—365 days a year!

Speaking of friends ... from your letters and emails, we can tell that you totally care about them. So invite them into the SUSIE Sisterhood with you! Go to the SUSIEMag.com homepage and hit the “Tell A Friend” button on the left-hand side. It’s simple: We need YOUR help in reaching other girls for Christ. YOU are the hands and feet of Jesus—and what an honor that is!

Girls, we hope you know how loved you are. If you were here—or if we were there—we’d treat you to an ice-cold Slurpee and give you a big ol’ bear hug. Please send us an email at info@susiemag.com and let us know your thoughts. We love you!
