Happy New Year to You & Your Family
Dear Friend,
Happy New Year!
Wishing you and your family Peace, Hope & Love in the new year.
At LUM, we’re thankful for YOU and each individual who contributed to the successes at LUM in 2020. Although we were at least six feet apart, you were still in our heart. May you have a blessed New Year — full of family, friends, hope & love in 2021.
Gratefully yours,
LUM Board of Directors,
Wes Tillett, LUM executive director, and
LUM staff members
