Ozaukee County Chapter, Year End Edition

THANK YOU FOR PARTICIPATING IN THE CHAPTER ELECTIONS

Thank you to all of the Thrivent Financial for Lutherans members who took the time in October and November to vote in the local chapter elections through their churches. 18 congregations participated!

The 2007 Chapter Leadership Board is composed of five returning leaders and five new leaders. This balance of experience and new energy will serve our chapter well in the following year. We are truly blessed as a chapter and a county to have volunteers willing to step forward to serve and fill our positions. We continue to welcome your involvement and your thoughts on how we can best be of service to you. Feel free to contact any of us:

THE GREATEST GIFT by Jackie Clemons

The greatest gift ever given did not come from a store
It was not given for a birthday but no gift has ever meant more
The greatest gift ever given was a gift of pure love
No greater gift will ever be received because this gift came from above
The greatest gift ever given was paid for at the highest price
To you for your salvation
The Gift of Jesus Christ

THE OZAUKEE COUNTY CHAPTER LEADERSHIP BOARD WISHES YOU A BLESSED NEW YEAR !!!
