Good morning. This is Pastor Heitshusen of St. Mark Lutheran with an important announcement.
This last week the Lord called to Himself two people of St. Mark’s family; Adell Knippa and Lois Ladwig.
Adell is the mother of St. Mark member, Marti. Her funeral will be this Wednesday, June 11, at 11:00 a.m. at Concordia Lutheran Church in San Antonio.
In addition to Adell, the Lord called Home longtime St. Mark member, Lois Ladwig. Lois was a dear, sweet woman of the Lord who was involved in many areas at St. Mark and set an example of service in the Lord with an open heart and a big smile.
