‘THE GIFT THAT KEEPS ON GIVING’
In 1986, a group of faithful Peace
Lutheran parishioners pooled
together both a vision and some
financial gifts to lay the foundation
for what would become both a
blessing and gift to the Oshkosh
community. The Peace Lutheran
Mission Endowment Fund took
foresight on the part of its
founding contributors and
continues to be guided by a
committee that possesses both
hearts for the mission of the
Endowment Fund and for those
who are awarded grants.
The Endowment is truly a blessing for Peace Lutheran
Church and we need to realize what a big deal it is to
have one as healthy and as large as we do. We also
must remember that it got to where it is today, which is
over a million dollars, because of the gracious gifts of
many (58 different estates, and many memorials and
gifts). I find this as a wonderful way to continue a legacy,
to support a vision, and to make a difference in the
world.
If this sounds like something you would like to be a part
of, the Endowment team is available for any questions
you might have, and if you are feeling a tug on your heart
to give a financial gift to the Endowment Fund, please
remember that you may include the Endowment in your
will, memorial gifts may be given to the Endowment, and
you may always make a gift to the Fund at anytime in the
form of cash, stock, or real estate.
If you didn't know, the Endowment Fund began awarding
grants to the greater community back in 1993 and has
been every year since. The way the Endowment Fund
works is that the principle amount of any gift to the
Endowment Fund remains in the fund. Only the earnings
from investment of these funds are distributed, which
means, the bigger the fund - the more interest there is to
serve our mission and to make an impact in the world.
Peace Lutheran Church is truly blessed to have such a
wonderful gift as the Endowment Fund. Would you
consider helping to keep the endowment fund as the "gift
that keeps giving" and to strengthen how much of an
impact we can make each year?
Since the Fund first began giving grants - $933,375 has
been given, with the most recent gifts in 2014 and 2015 of
$57,000 and $62,500 respectively. That makes a huge
impact in our Community of Oshkosh and for our ministry
partners, local and abroad! The money is granted in these

PRESIDENT’S MESSAGE
PLEASE PRAY FOR:
Greetings,
I hope you all had a very nice Christmas. And
speaking of the Christmas season, I just wanted to touch
base about the winner of the Chili Cook-Off that was held
on December 9th. Along with the Chili Cook-off we had a
basket raffle provided by a number of different teams
from the church. It was a very good turnout and enjoyed
by many. There were many delicious pots of chili, but the
winner over all was Joe Friday with his White Chicken
Chili. Congratulations, Joe, everyone wants your recipe!
I would like to welcome George Sawall to the
staff at PLC. George is our new maintenance person and
is also a member of the Property Team. George decided
to take the position after doing a short interim. He is very
knowledgeable about many things around the building
and is doing a great job. Thanks, George, we are glad to
have you here!
Here is an invitation and a reminder, to attend
the upcoming annual meeting which will be held
on Sunday, January 31st at 9:15 am. If you attend the
8:00 o'clock service, please plan on sticking around for
the meeting and if you attend the 10:30 service, please
plan on coming early. We will be presenting the Budget
for 2016, along with a ballot, voting in new people in
various areas of the church and such. So please plan on
being a part of the annual meeting.
With a new year starting I would like to wish you
all a Very Happy and Prosperous New Year.

SUNDAY SCHOOL
A LIGHT IN THE FOREST
Decked out in their holiday finery, the kids of
Peace Lutheran provided a truly inspirational
performance at this year’s Sunday School
Christmas Program. The service featured
traditional Christmas carols sung by the entire
Sunday School ensemble as well as special
music by smaller groups.
The program also included a three-act video
presentation, entitled A Light in the Forest,
which tells the story of a family searching for
the perfect tree and wind up finding an
important Christmas message. The video
included commercials dealing with aspects of
the Christmas Spirit delivered by angels,
shepherds and an innkeeper. All told, more
than two dozen of our Sunday Schoolers
appeared on-screen or had significant parts in
producing the video. All our Sunday School
families will get a DVD copy of the video
program in January.
Sunday School will resume on January 10.
The Sunday School Ensemble sings Away in a Manger.

GREETINGS, FAMILY AND FRIENDS OF
PEACE CHRISTIAN PRESCHOOL,

had a celebration for Baby Jesus, and the 4K
children enjoyed a day in their PJs with cookies
and hot chocolate and a ride on the Polar Express.
We will be missing Ms. Dara for the first couple
of weeks of January. She will be in Guyana,
Africa. She will be greatly missed but this is an
extremely amazing opportunity for her so we’re
also very excited for her. This will help us
prepare for our transition for next year as Ms.
Dara will be moving on to the next stage of her
life and start her pastoral internship.
It’s a new year! This is the time that we all make
resolutions for how much better we will become in
2016. For the benefit of our great church
newsletter editor, one of my resolutions is to get
my newsletter submissions in on time--maybe even
early! Honestly though, I would love to become
one of those people who have the habit of being
not just on time, but early. Unfortunately, my
grandpa nicknamed me “the caboose” at the age
of five when I was always the last grandchild to
the bus stop, and the habit hasn’t ended now that
I’m one week away from turning 40 years old.
We have one need that we are hoping members of
the church might help us with. While all of our
children are capable, not all of them remember to
come to school with mittens. We try to keep a
supply of gloves and mittens at the preschool but
our supply is not adequate. What the teachers
REALLY want are LITTLE MITTENS. These are
easier for the children to put on themselves.
Thank you in advance to anyone who can help.
December finished with a lot of busy activities in
the preschool. Our preschool concert was well
attended again this year. I wish we had a way to
count the number of people who attend. We have
61 children enrolled and each child brings an
entourage of 4-8 family members with them on
the evening of the concert. We fill the pews in
the sanctuary and flood up to the pews in the
balcony. We have great volunteers from the
Church community who help for the evening with
our bake sale, playing the music, and taking
photos. This year our bake sale proceeds of $195
were contributed to Luther the Cow’s fund-raising
drive. We hope our contribution helped reach the
goal needed to purchase a water purification
system for a third world community.
Wishing you all a great new year.
