Dan Hansen introduced today's speaker:


Josi Kilpack is a resident of Perry

and an accomplished author of LDS themed books.
She has published 13 novels and continues to write,
published by Deseret Book Company.

Josi shared her history with literature and reading,

including her lack of interest in the same until her
7th grade reading assignment and book report
completely changed her perspective and interested her
in the art of writing.

She shared 5 gifts that can help each of us find success

in whatever field we venture into:
1. Ability
2. Passion
3. Drive and Ambition
4. Example
5. Opportunity

Thanks, Josi for your humorous and intersting presentation.

Next week Paul Damon's program will be a representative of

Associated General Contractors.
