Family Cookout — Sept. 15
All children, tweens, youth and their families are invited to join us for a cookout at the picnic shelter at Moricle Park on Sunday, Sept. 15 from 5 to 7 p.m. Hamburgers, hot dogs, chips and desserts will be served. This is a great opportunity to meet some of the other families in our church and to get to know the adults who lead our children, tween and youth programs.
There is no cost to attend, but please let Michelle Rash know if your family will be coming so we can make sure we have enough food.
