Dear Rev. and Mrs. Luft: The Ladies’ Aid of this Zion Lutheran Church extends to you a most hearty welcome. We had privilege of being introduced to as members of the congregation now we seek an introduction members of the Ladies’ Aid. This being the first ofHcial meet­ ing of the Aid since your induction it is therefore fitting at this time to welcome you, Rev Luft, as a leader, adviser and minister to the many problems and needs that beset us as an organization from time to time. We welcome Mrs. Luft as a valued member, co-worker and social arbiter to whom we will look for many things in common. During the last pastorate the Ladies’ Aid as an organization of the church went forward in leaps and bounds in comparison to its former dormant position. We have at times been criticized and there have been dissensions among the ranks, nevertheless the main spirit of the Ladies’ Aid has al­ lowed us to forge ahead to many useful conclusions. So now with our new pastorate 1 would ask from every member the same co-operation and even more diligence in a desire to work together in harmony for the common cause of church work. ’Every member has the ri'ght and privilege to seek information and ad­ vice from our pastor, his decisions on matters of information should be accepted as final. Again I say that if we work to­ gether in one happy unit our future efforts can not help but to be crown­ ed with success.
