Beginning Wednesday, July 8, from 5:30 -7:00 pm, we'll get together in the MPR for our first Simple Summer Supper. Our Hospitality Committee will bless us with a simple cooked meal. Just bring yourself and a donation to offset the cost of the meal, please. You can't get any easier than that! We hope you will come and fellowship with your church family and stay for our program, Who Is My Neighbor? immediately following dinner at 7:00 pm in the MPR. We'll continue the suppers and the program on July 15 and 22.
