LEAP DAY CELEBRATION

Posted February 13, 2020

We’ve been given an extra night to enjoy and we’re going to make sure that it is filled with food, fun and entertainment for the whole family.  Join us on Saturday, February 29 at 5 pm.  Each family is requested to bring a side dish or a dessert.  We will provide roast pork, hot dogs, hamburger BBQ, rolls and drinks.  Merrill Adams, Jr. (Mody), Bertie Witman and God’s Handiwork Gang will entertain us.  There will be adult and kids games.  Sign up in the Narthex so we know how many to prepare for.
