Today was the annual Fall meeting of the
Golden Wheat Chapter AHSGR (American Historical Society of Germans from Russia).
We were all happy to see Karen, our leader, back with us today.
Sad to get bad news concerning Ralph Engelken. Ella opened the meeting with prayer.
As always, even with a small group, there's plenty of good food.
Our meeting began with Dennis reporting on the events at the State Convention and then he led the Election of Officers.
Our program was member sharing family traditions. Ella started us off with the importance of recording family history, the stories, not just the stats. Other members then shared their memories.
Another wonderful time of fellowship.
