From Cathy Barnwell

Many thanks to Diana Balow and members of the Family Life Ministry and Kitchen Crew for all their hard work getting our Wednesday Night Dinners back after covid! If you haven't attended, I highly recommend it.

They provide great food and fun. Last week we had line dancing which was a blast. Sitting around a dinner table & visiting with your fellow church members is a great way to build community!
