  • 1:00 Visitation (the rest of us)
  • 2:00 Celebration of Life with Military Honors

I’ll post the obituary, as well as a link that you can use to leave a memorial donation in lieu of flowers. As always, please keep the Putnam family in your prayers. 

Honey Creek 150 Year History Book

Danny asked me to let everyone know that he would have some of these available at the family Reunion in, well, today. He actually sent me this last week, but I was in New Orleans, and either busy or drunk, depending on the time of day. The books are available for some suggested donation amount, or twice that, if you’re feeling generous, or drunk.

Prayers for Heidi

(This is Lauren typing because Lloyd is asleep after a long day of pulling wire at Lincoln Lutheran. I’m sure he’ll update this later to make it charming and funny.)

Heidi is ill with painful, swollen lymph nodes but no fever. She has been tested for COVID and will know the results by Monday. She’s asking for prayers, everyone, so thank you for your faith and love!

Praying for you, Heidi!

Update: Heidi’s Covid test came back positive, so continue to keep her in your prayers.

Not too late to use your Thrivent Action Plans for Heit’s Point or elsewhere!

My mom, Aunt Jane to some of you, sent this to me:

Dear family,

I talked to Mark Nolte at Heit’s Point today.  If you have unused Thrivent projects you can turn them in before the end of 2020 to be used between January and April of 2021.  To use them for Heit’s Point, mark it as a servant project.  Your part will be coordinating and planning.  He has had several go through as “Help with Volunteering” for whatever is needed.  Set the use as supplies and an amount of $250.00. You can even change the address to: 

Mark Nolte
Heit’s Point Lutheran Ministries
28345 Heit’s Point Ave.
Lincoln, Mo. 65338

That way, you will not have to get the project to him (it will be sent right to Heit’s point).  If you do not want to use it for Heit’s Point,  find another worthwhile project and submit for.  It has to be done before the end of December.

And I would just add that if don’t live in Missouri, it is probably easier to pick a local charity to use the free $500 dollars that everyone with a Thrivent Insurance policy or Retirement Account has.
