Following the Labor Day parade this year, the Wagner St. John Lutheran Church served a luncheon open to the community. It was a free-will donation with all proceeds going to the Wince family. In July of this year, Tanner and Talia Wince had their fourth son, Hudson, who was born with a heart defect called Hypoplastic Left Heart Syndrome (HLHS). Talia and baby Hudson are currently at the Children’s Hospital Colorado in Aurora. Tanner and the three oldest boys have returned to Wagner with the start of school.

The Wince’s are members of the St. John Lutheran Church in Wagner. The church takes weekly collections to help the family and has also donated last year’s soup supper proceeds to the family. At the Labor Day lunch they served approximately 150 people. Brats, burgers, coleslaw, baked beans and homemade desserts were served.

The church volunteers that helped were Beth Schroeder, Wanda Weber, Sloane Weber, Jordan Weber, Virginia Konyek, Tammy Weisser, Marjo Soukup, Roger Schroeder, Scott McAdaragh, Brian Weisser and Pastor Heermann.

Thank you to all that came out to support this event and the Wince family.
