Fall Outdoor Service and Chili Cook-Off!

Bring your family and join the fun at the Annual Fall Outdoor Service and Chili Cook-Off

event on Sunday, September 18th at the 2nd Campus! The service begins at 10:30AM and

is followed by the chili lunch and competition. Sandwiches, drinks and desserts are

provided, so just bring your family and your appetite! This year, the youth have challenged

our adults to a volleyball game after the lunch, so if you are a volleyball player, plan to stay

and play! Or bring a lawn chair and root for your favorite team!

We are also in need of at least 10 volunteers to help us at 9:45AM to set up the

Outdoor Service and at least 10 volunteers to stay after lunch and help us clean up. Both

sign up sheets are available on the bulletin board. Please sign up!
