PEACE DINNER AND AUCTION
Thank you to all the supporters of this year’s auction and dinner. The event raised over $40,000 which is more than any other of our previous auctions. The $40,000 includes $10,000 specifically designated for tuition scholarships raised in part by a donation from the Zion Lutheran School Foundation and auction attendees.
Please read your Sower for a list of those who donated their time, talents and treasurers to this project.
