TFC’s Bucks-Montgomery Chapter Banquet
Friday evening, September 14 ~ Continued
With the Bontrager Family from Kalona, Iowa
The younger Bontrager boys - Lincoln, Denver, and Hudson - watch as some of their older siblings sing.
Mother Becky with their three oldest children – Allison, Chelsy, and Mitchell.
Chelsy, Carson, Joshua, Lincoln, Mitchell, Allison, Becky, Elizabeth, Rebecca, Marlin, and Denver. I can’s see Hudson, but he appears to be hidden behind Allison and Elizabeth. I think I see his shoes.
Rebecca and Daddy
The five youngest – Rebecca, Elizabeth, Denver, Lincoln, and Hudson
These six show what it means to cooperate. Notice they are each playing two instruments.
I enjoyed watching Marlin and Becky watching their children.
During the break Bunny O’Hare, Director of Pastor Care for Chaplains, shared a ministry update.
Joshua loves to memorize scripture. On this night he recited Hebrews 11 – all forty verses.
We were truly blessed as we listened to the Bontragers and visited with Marlin and Becky – we sat at the same table.
I hope I got the names right. You can check out their family listing here.
After the banquet, the guests were invited to see the inside of the chapel.
We had lots of visitors.

It was a great evening.

Marlin Bontrager is my double second cousin. I have yet to hear that family sing.
