This farewell celebration will take place at the farm now being developed as the Center for Lifelong Learning (CLL), northeast of Lathrop, MO.

Each church group coming is asked to bring a fruit cobbler or fruit pie, in keeping with the idea of planing fruit trees on that site in honor of the service Bill and Donna have given to this area in the past 15 years.

Many gifts have already been collected toward the purchase of the fruit trees, which should be planted in the spring. Any further gifts that come to the Area for this event will go into a monetary gift for the Rose-Heims as they leave.

Bill has accepted a call to serve as the Regional Minister
of the Greater Kansas City Region.
