As I think back over your years of
service the word “committed”
comes to mind. There seems to
have never been a time when you
weren’t prepared for an event
even in your absence.
You have the ability to reach the
youth in such a way that learning
more about the Lord is exciting. I
thank you for being who you are in
Christ. You lead by example.
I appreciate all your hard work and
the dedication you’ve shown.
Know that your labor is not in vain.
I love you with the love of God and

accompanying scriptures, the workshops, and your warm friendly
personality!
You have indeed shown yourself to be a woman of God and the District
has been wonderfully blessed because of your efforts. I want you to know
that we greatly appreciate you, and all that you have done to help us all
to be better Christians!

Has it really been 30
years?
Time really does not
stand still. Seems like it
was just a short time
ago that we were
working together on
the first "Southwest

Banquet".
But really, over the
years we have
You are a wonderful friend and colleague. It's been a pleasure working with you

deserving of this
honor and more. I
thank the Lord for
you.

Sister Concetta Lewis, Your friend in Christ
Congratulations Sister Litrea on 30
years as our D.R.E.
Sister Litrea is a unique woman. You
are the (wo)man that Psalms 37:37
speaks of. You have been a perfect
example for me. I really appreciate
all that you do.
Not only do I think of you as a
perfect woman but a virtuous
woman. I am so honored to work
with such a phenomenal woman.
Who can find a virtuous woman? For
her price is far above rubies.
We have found that woman in you!
Sister Litrea,
I commend you for
the years of work
you’ve done.
Congratulations to
you for being an
outstanding
DRE, for working so
diligently down
through the
years, and being
the wonderful
person that you
are. Stay focused.
God love you and
so do I.
Sister Nina Williams
To a dear sister, Sister Litrea,
I thank the Lord for you. You’re such a beautiful
person. I admire you for the knowledge and wisdom
God has given you.
Thank you for your patience, kindness, understanding,
and your teaching; for being a God fearing woman;
for the effort you have put forth preparing for the
Bishops, Elders, and the young people. Sister Litra, I
love you!
Sister Etta Everhart
Congratulations Sister
Hunter!
I remember last year’s
convention in Hamilton
when you explained
about the hotel key card
and shared tips on how
to keep from getting
ripped off. That was so
interesting. You always
have good things to tell
us. You work so hard.
We appreciate and love
you.
Sister Mary Lampkin

immeasurable, congratulations!“

that you've

you've been my
mom! Jackie,

I thank God for
your role in my
life both as DRE
and as MOM.
Congrats!“
