History of the Atlanta Area Council
The Atlanta Area Council of the American Business Women’s Association was organized in December, 1979. It was an outgrowth of the ABWA 1978 National Convention held in Atlanta, GA. Members of the fourteen Host Chapters and six new Chapters wanted to continue the friendship and “togetherness”. Upon receiving guidance and recommendations from ABWA Executive Director, Ruth Bufton, the 1978 National Convention Officers, Committee Chairs, and other interested members coordinated their ideas, talents, and expertise to formalize the best type of Council to serve ABWA members in the Atlanta area. Through their combined efforts, and many hours of planning by ABWA members, a set of guidelines (bylaws) was established. Council Charter Officers were elected in March, 1980, for a one-year term. In 1985 Marlena Coggins, Council Chairman and a member of the Golden Dome envisioned and initiated the first Atlanta Area Council Annual Leadership Workshop. The Council’s primary goal is to further the mission of ABWA and to provide an opportunity for the interaction among ABWA Chapters and Express Networks in the Atlanta area. The original officers were:
Millie Burchardt, Chairman Pat Malone, Vice-Chairman
Verna Brown, Recording Secretary Glenda Love, Corresponding Secretary
Dee Wilson, Treasurer

Invocation
Lord, in the quiet of this hour, We come to Thee for wisdom, and for power; To view Thy world through only love-filled eyes; To grow in understanding; To be wise and sure to see Thy guiding light; And thus to know each other as Thou knowest us. Amen
Benediction
O Guiding Spirit, Guardian of our days, be with us as we go our separate ways. Help us to feel those thoughts that lift and bless, to know a closer bond of friendliness, To see Thy beauty, always, every day, Translated into living, this we pray. Amen
