“Lead to Serve, Serve to Lead”
Dear Lions of District 37,
This Lionistic year, we proudly embrace the powerful motto of our International President A.P. Singh: “Lead to Serve, Serve to Lead.” These words remind us that leadership and service are inseparable—two sides of the same coin. When we serve with heart, we inspire others to lead. When we lead with humility, we create a path for others to serve.
This is not about statistics. It’s not about numbers on a report. It’s about people—neighbors, families, youth, and seniors—whose lives are changed through the kindness of Lions like you. We are here for one purpose: to serve our communities.
People are not joining our district. They are joining YOUR CLUB. Your community. Your mission. And that’s why District 37 exists to support YOU.

Dear Lions of Montana District 37,
I hope this message finds you all in great spirits! I recently had the privilege of attending the Lions International Convention 2025 in Orlando, Florida. The energy and dedication of Lions from across the globe were truly inspiring, and I’m excited to share some highlights and initiatives that can benefit our district.
A key moment at the convention was the address from our International President, A. P. Singh. He challenged every Lions Club to expand its membership this month. His inspiring motto, “Lead to Serve, Serve to Lead,” reminds us of the power and impact we have as service leaders in our communities. Membership growth is essential not only for our sustainability but for our ability to serve effectively. Let’s take up this challenge—together, we can make a substantial difference!

“Why on Earth Would You Go to Orlando in July?”
To meet thousands of fellow Lions from across the globe, that’s why! There’s truly no better way to celebrate the spirit of We Serve than being immersed in a sea of Lions united in service, laughter, and culture.
Over 750 District Governors gathered to complete our final day of training, which ended in an epic celebration—international cuisine, music from every continent, and dancing that tested both rhythm and knee joints. (Important note: DG Corinna has confirmed she does NOT have the “Moves like Jagger,” and her knee reminded her of that for several days.)

Thank You, Governor Raleigh from Incoming Governor Corinna
As we turn the page into a new Lionistic year, I want to take a moment to extend heartfelt gratitude to our 2024–2025 District Governor, Lion Raleigh Peck, for his exceptional leadership and steadfast commitment to Lions of Montana.
His vision and work ethic helped strengthen our district in many ways—but one of his lasting contributions is the groundwork he laid for improved communication. His implementation of consistent monthly Zoom meetings with Zone Chairs and regular Governor Team meetings created stronger connections, better collaboration, and increased support across the state.
District Governor Elect Message – June 2025
From Your District Governor Elect – Corinna Christensen – June 2025
Dear Lions of District 37,
What an incredible time we had at the Montana Lions Convention in Helena this May! My heartfelt thank you to the Helena Lions, Helena Gold Rush Lions, and Townsend Lions for putting on a fantastic and well-organized event . Your hospitality, energy, and commitment to Lionism made for a truly memorable gathering. If you have not attended a convention – or have not been to one in a few years – consider attending next year in Columbia Falls. It is already shaping up to be a memorable event.
