Thank you for your commitment

and dedication to the Southwest

Ohio District. Your service in the

Department of Religious

Education has a tremendous

impact on the people of God by

providing life-long learning

opportunities.

and keep you in the knowledge

of His grace.

Bishop & Sister Johnnie L. Davis,

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

am thankful for all that you have

done.

Pastor Beth Poellnitz

enjoyed the many challenging themes along with the very appropriate

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!

Pastor Reginald Poellnitz

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

Ohio District's Award

Banquet".

But really, over the

years we have

You are a wonderful friend and colleague. It's been a pleasure working with you

down through the years during the Northeast and Southwest Ohio annual

conventions. I pray that God will continue to shower you with His mighty

blessings as you continue the work to educate and build His Kingdom.

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

"Wow, 30 yrs as DRE is such an accomplishment; and I've been there right

by your side lol. Thank you for being the greatest example of a teacher

and a mom. Your humbleness and your heart for people and God is

immeasurable, congratulations!“

Jackie

"It's amazing

that you've

been the DRE

longer than

you've been my

mom! Jackie,

Matthew and I

were birthed

into being

regular HYPU

hour volunteers.

I thank God for

your role in my

life both as DRE

and as MOM.

Congrats!“

James

"Congratulations

for having the

faith, the

courage, the

positivity, the

virtue, and the

woman!“
