Join us in June 2025 for a celebration of Carol and Dirk Damonte’s 40+ years of ministry!

June 21 & 22, 2025

Our beloved Dirk and Carol Damonte are retiring from ministry after four decades of service to LAUMC.  We are in the beginning stages of planning a retirement celebration to honor them and send them off to Oregon with the caliber of love and care they have shown all of us over the years. 

We will host a series of events at LAUMC spanning the morning of Saturday, June 21 through the afternoon of Sunday, June 22, 2025, including an alumni rehearsal, brunch, a musical revue and tribute concert, culminating with alumni singing in church Sunday morning. 

Please mark this date in your calendar!  We hope you can join us for as much of the weekend as possible!

A second request we have is helping spread the word to siblings, parents, and friends. We have a database of 1,000 names but we want to be sure we don’t miss anyone! If you need us to update your contact info (including name changes) or want to share contact info for anyone else (i.e parents), please respond to this and let us know.

Thank you!

Sincerely,

Casie Walker and Katrina Hane Watters (‘94), co-chairs
