Bricksdahl Residents Home After Hawaii Trip

Bethel Lutheran Church members voted to sponsor seven relatives of the Don Troung family, refugees arriving in March and previously sponsored by Bethel. The relatives include a son, a daughter, a son in law, a grandson, a grandmother, and two nieces. The Troungs, now self supporting, expect to care for their relatives when they arrive. The Bethel Willing Workers plan a Thursday meeting at 2:30 pm with Ruth Seth hosting. Various local residents and families are noted for visits, trips to Austin, Lubbock, San Antonio, and Hawaii, plus farm activity and a Thursday night ice cream social at Bethel Church. Births include Lalo Aguierres and Naomi and Leslie Anita Ruiz. The jellyfish fact appears as an unrelated science note.
