Dear friends,
As you are aware, God, in his infinite wisdom has taken former President Steve Witte home to be with him. Two of Steve’s daughters and three granddaughters also died in the tragic fire. Our ALS family is doing all we can to support these families during this time of tragedy.
We invite you to join us in supporting them through the linked fundraisers below:
If you would like to support the Kuehl family — the family of Steve and Mary’s daughter Charis and granddaughter Stella — you can use this link: https://www.gofundme.com/f/support-for-steve-norah-and-vera-kuehl
If you would like to support the Henselin family — the family of Steve and Mary’s granddaughters Lena and Merci — you can use this link:

In addition, ALS will be establishing a memorial scholarship fund in Dr. Witte’s name. We’ll share more information in future posts.
For now, we ask you to pray, support these families with your gifts as you are able, and encourage one another with the message of salvation.
Together, we join in praying for Mary Witte, her whole family, and all who are saddened by this loss. May God provide comfort through the sure hope of eternal salvation.
