NCFRW – Celebrating America's 250th Birthday all year long!

October 2026

From Erica Vedeikis, NCFRW President

Happy Fall, Y’all!


The air is crisp, the mornings are cooler, the days are getting shorter—and election season is here! November 3 is just 33 days away, and Early Voting begins October 15—only two weeks from today.


For the next 33 days, our focus is turnout. This is the time to make the phone calls, knock on doors, write postcards, volunteer at headquarters, work the polls, talk with our neighbors, and make sure Republican voters have a plan to cast their ballots.


Across North Carolina, voters will decide races from the U.S. Senate and all 14 congressional districts to the General Assembly, our appellate courts, and important county and local offices. Let's send Michael Whatley and 11 US Congressional members to DC in 2027! Let's put Sarah Stevens on the North Carolina Supreme Court and Michael Byrne, George Bell, and Craig Collins on the North Carolina Court of Appeals.


As Republican women, we know elections are won through participation. Our job now is to encourage every voter we can reach to learn about the candidates, make a voting plan, and get to the polls. Whether you have an hour to give or every day between now and November 3, there is something you can do.


The stakes are significant, and this is our opportunity to advocate for the principles we believe in—constitutional government, individual liberty, public safety, responsible government, and strong communities. From Washington to Raleigh to our county commissions, sheriffs' offices, and school boards, the people we elect will make decisions that affect our families and communities for years to come.


So, ladies, let’s leave nothing on the table. When the polls close at 7:30 p.m. on November 3, I want each of us to be able to say, “I did everything I could.”

I believe in the strength, determination, and dedication of the women of the NCFRW. Now is our time to put that energy to work.


33 days. Let’s get to work!

Reflection for October

October can feel like a season of urgency. There is work to finish, responsibilities to carry, and important decisions ahead. In moments like these, Scripture reminds us that our strength does not come from ourselves—it comes from the Lord.


“Be on your guard; stand firm in the faith; be courageous; be strong. Do everything in love.” — 1 Corinthians 16:13–14


Stay strong. When you are tired, discouraged, or overwhelmed, remember that

God can renew your strength.

Believe. Trust God even when you cannot see what lies ahead. Faith means continuing forward while placing the outcome in His hands.

Work. Whatever task God has placed before you, approach it faithfully and with love. Encourage others. Serve your community. Pray for wisdom. And do the work before you with integrity and purpose.


As we move through October and toward the midterm elections, may we remember that our faith is bigger than any election season. Let us stand firm, serve faithfully, treat others with grace, and trust God with what we cannot control.


Prayer: Lord, give us strength when we grow weary, courage when the road is difficult, and wisdom in the decisions before us. Help us work faithfully, speak graciously, and keep our hearts centered on You. May everything we do be done in love. Amen.
