Is this okay to post:

A few weeks ago, our office had the distinct honor of welcoming Ms. Carol Seischab from Dobbs Ferry Lutheran Church. We are deeply grateful for the generosity and support of our Dobbs Ferry Lutheran Church family, who presented a special donation to the Lutheran World Federation (LWF).

Moments like these highlight the strength of our partnerships and the shared commitment that unites our communities. We extend our sincere thanks to Evangelical Lutheran Church of America’s congregation, the Dobbs Ferry Lutheran Church, for their kindness, generosity, and continued support of the LWF’s mission and work around the world.
