Susan Sochowski Family
At our request, Mark has put together a list of concrete and financial ways to help the family as they adjust to a new normal after Susan's stroke. As she continues to recover at home, Susan and the family can use everything from help cleaning the garage to supportive notes and cards to gift cards to help cover expenses.

Planning for the Future:
Including a statement of your Christian faith is important in your estate plans. Creating that statement
of faith is something we do in community. We might call your statement of faith a Christian Preamble (if you include it at the beginning of your will) or a Family Blessing if you just tuck it away with your
will/trust documents. But where do I start in summarizing what I believe? Think about the creeds, both
Apostles and Nicene, which we recite together regularly in worship. In the community of faith, we have
a great common statement of our faith. Your LCMS Foundation Gift Planning Counselor can help you to
get started on writing your personal statement. Contact Scott Radden @ 618-977-4049 or
scott.radden@lfnd.org.
