✨ Meet the Team Monday ✨ Please help us give a warm welcome to the newest member of the First Light Financial team — Financial Advisor, Adelio Ikonomi! Adelio has a genuine heart for helping others navigate their financial journeys with confidence and clarity. In his own words: “I’ve always been passionate about helping people take control of their future. Growing up, I saw firsthand how overwhelming and confusing money management can be—especially when life gets busy or unexpected challenges arise. I realized that with the right guidance, planning, and education, people can build not just wealth but financial confidence.” What Adelio loves most about this work is being able to walk alongside his clients through all of life’s milestones—whether that’s buying a home, starting a family, or planning for retirement. His goal? To simplify the complex, offer advice, and build lasting relationships. Born and raised in Wisconsin, Adelio and his brothers are proud first-generation Americans. When he’s not in the office, you’ll likely find him staying active, catching a game, or enjoying a backyard barbecue with family and friends. We’re thrilled to have Adelio on our team, and we can’t wait for you to meet him! See thrivent.com/social for important disclosures.

For nearly 30 years, Thrivent has created this special calendar by—and for—our membership. The featured photos are submitted by Thrivent clients and friends and has become a beloved tradition. As always, the calendar is available at no cost to our clients with membership. Grace surrounds us in the everyday moments—in the quiet sip of morning coffee, an unexpected act of kindness, the rustle of leaves on a walk through the woods. It’s in the stillness, the laughter and those quiet pauses that give us a chance to reflect. For our 2026 calendar, we’ve chosen “Moments of Grace” as the theme, and we’d love your help in capturing these special moments through your clients' original photos and artwork. What are the small, meaningful instances that remind them to pause, be present and appreciate the beauty in everyday life? Clients, prospects, and members of Team Thrivent can find detailed submission instructions, learn about the selection process, and order their calendar at thrivent.com/calendar. The deadline to submit entries by June 30.
