ANOTHER FELLOWSHIP PICNIC
August 7th (1st Tuesday) will be the next indoor summer picnic at 6 PM. Last time I planned for 60 and we had 59. After a lot of favorable comments, this time we might have more. Meat will be provided.
Please call either Sandy Fox at 256-9317 or Michelle at the church office at 242-0298, and let us know if you will be attending. It would be most appreciated. We want to have plenty of food. It helps if you bring your own table service. I’m open for any suggestions. Hope to see you there!
