Thank you to all who SERVED for our Christmas Daymeal at the Church! What a success it was. Around 60people were served. Thanks to all of you who broughtfood, helped set-up, serve and clean-up, providedtransportation, and of course, those who invited someone.What a great way for people to get to fellowship andcelebrate the birth of our Savior, Jesus Christ.
Looking forward to continuing to reach others and servein the coming year!
