This is the first issue of Macedonian Herald in the New Year and the New Millennium. We hope that the new year will bring happiness, health and prosperity to all of you, and greater unity of the Macedonians everywhere. Lets start the new year with a New Year's resolution: We will work for a greater personal and collective prosperity. As each one of us prospers, our Macedonian community will also prosper. Each one of us can make a contribution. If all of us use the services of Macedonian business, we all gain, because those same businesses in turn support the activities of our community. So, lets give Macedonian business a hand!

The United Macedonians Web Site is up and running. Visit us at: www.unitedmacedonians.org. There you can find interesting information about the Organization and about Macedonia. The December issue of Macedonian Herald is already on, and soon all issues from August on will be included. Enjoy our site.

The Editors of Macedonian Herald and the Executive of United Macedonians wishes a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year to all of you.
