The real "surprise" were the thugs that paid us a visit looking very scary and menacing in their "Thug Life"
costuming. They turned out to be Lady Anita Luster, National Presidents Council Chairman, and Lady
Karen Dilligard, National Presidents Council Co-Chairman who won 1st place for Best Costume!
Lady Dean was presented with an early birthday gift of $750 from the conference. She was very surprised
and happy.

The National President was presented with $1,980 for her Franchell Boswell Endowment Fund. For once
in her life, she was speechless.

Fun was had by all and we thank all who participated in the evening. Top Ladies, you are something
else. That is all I will say. We were blessed with an unexpected treat from former Teen Josef Sorrells
who is now a junior at Morehouse College. I have always said that we should rename Top Teens of Amer-
ica and call them The Top Teens of America Theological Seminary because we tend to recruit and grow
ministers. Teen Ambassador Josef was supposed to bring parting words and boy, did he! We had church,
which was very befitting because we would not be able to make church the next day. If that was his first
sermon, he gets an A+. His sermon was excellent and we are so proud of him.

Thanks!
