Allan and Sue Ost live in Havre, Montana, where they are members of First Lutheran Church.  They have three grown children and four grandchildren.  Both are graduates of Montana State University – Northern in Havre.

Both Allan and Sue are active ELCA Mission Builders, and longtime supporters of Flathead Lutheran Bible Camp.  Their first Mission Builders project was construction of the Gathering Pavillion at FLBC in 2013.

“The work of the wider church, and the ability of the church to sustain its work for the long term, are very important to us,” says Sue.  Working with Beth Adams, Region I Gift Planner, the Osts have created a Charitable Remainder Trust.  The charitable beneficiaries of the trust are four ELCA organizations:  Flathead Lutheran Bible Camp, First Lutheran Church – Havre, Montana Synod of the ELCA, and ELCA Mission Builders.

“The thing that’s important for people to know“, says Allan, “is that you don’t have to be wealthy to make a difference.  We’re just regular working people, and we were surprised when Beth showed us how much we could do by creating this Trust.”
