We will also have prayers of thankful remembrance for loved ones who passed away in the last year. Come and join us! And if you need to charge a cell phone, we have power!

Fun in the Pumpkin Patch Reimagined! Update!

Hi, everybody! Last weekend we didn't have our Pumpkin Patch Painting Party for the community because, although Hurricane Delta had passed, the grass was wet in the yard and the wind was still blowing hard. But! We have our Rain Date of this Saturday, October 17 at 3 p.m., for our Painting Party! The Painting Party starts at 3. Anyone can come -- from the church or from the community. We were thinking children would paint, but hey, if there are adults who would like to paint a pumpkin, come on out!
