Carol Dieckman
Office Administrator
I am a life time resident of Muscatine. I have one son and three grandchildren. I also have two dogs which are like my kids.
I started as an Office Administrator with Grace Lutheran Church in February 2015.
In 2005 I retired after 25 years with the HNI Corporation in their Human Resources Department as a HR Manager. I worked at a variety of different HNI plants in the Muscatine area and spent two years at their plant in Louisburg, North Carolina. After retiring from HNI I worked at a trucking firm for five years as their HR Manager and worked five years as an Office Assistant for an attorney here in Muscatine.
In my spare time I enjoy attending my grandchildren’s sporting events. I also enjoy spending time outdoors doing yard work and inside I enjoy baking, reading, and putting together puzzles.

Karen Woods
Director of the Ministry of Literacy
As the director of the Ministry of Literacy at Grace Lutheran Church, I would like to introduce myself. My name is Karen Woods and I am a life-long member of Grace.
I have been married to Tony Woods for 33 years. We have three adult children and three grandchildren who all live in Muscatine, so I enjoy being able to be Grandma-on-call when needed. I recently retired after teaching for 32 years. I have taught every elementary grade except kindergarten, but for most of those years I taught first grade. I love seeing children get excited about learning new things and the joy on their faces when they succeed!
I am looking forward to this opportunity to make a small difference in the lives of the children we serve.
