                     oman’s  Life Insurance Society reported a
                     positive net income of $383,889 for 2022.
            WPremium revenue increased by $1.2 mil-
            lion, or 10%, the result of a 15% increase in annuity
            premiums and a 2% decrease in life premiums. Like
            many financial organizations, Woman’s Life contin-
            ues to be challenged by lower interest rates in the
            bond  market  and  saw  a  reduction  of  $203,000,  or
            2%, in investment income. Woman’s Life also saw
            an increase in our certificate reserves of $1.6 million,
            which is primarily due to the increase in premiums.
            These factors combined to contribute to the net gain
            for 2022.
              Our mission at Woman’s Life is to prepare women
            and their families for a secure financial future through
