The members of Thrivent Dodge County Chapter again put together 50 food baskets for the needy of West Dodge County on Saturday, December 8th. Each basket consisted of ham, turkey loaf, fruit, cans of vegetables, boxes of cereal, mac and cheese, dish soap, laundry soap etc.  All the recipents were very happy to know that they were remembered at this time of year and so glad to get the much needed items.  


We would like to say "A BIG THANK YOU"  to Don and Linda Gitzel and Jessica Gitzel for purchasing all the items and having everything set up and ready to assemble early on Saturday morning.
