We are thankful to Xavier Theater for the invite to the dress rehearsal for “Christmas Stars” for non profit groups.

We extend our gratitude to flutists Di Sutlief and Tricia Grimm,
The Joyful Noise Choir
from St. Timothy Church (directed by Kevin Plekin), and the 6th Grade Class from Faith Lutheran Church (led by teachers Lois Hilger and Heidi Sigle). Thanks for sharing your musical talents and reminding us of the true meaning of Christmas in song.

Joyful Celebrations
Christmas gatherings provide us a time for fellowship. We are fortunate to have had two tenant celebrations in December. The first hosted by the board members of Fox Valley Lutheran Homes and the other by the family of Bob Kraus led by Bob's daughter Judy Peterson.

An Opportunity to Give Back to Our Community
During the Christmas luncheon celebration hosted by Bob Kraus and family, tenants collected simple snacks and lunch items for a neighborhood school. These items will be part of a care package for children that may otherwise be hungry over the Christmas break. Thank you to our tenants for their generosity.
