For this reason, I bow my knees before the Father, from whom every family in heaven and on earth is named, – Ephesians 3:14-15

Annual Family Fall Festival
The Church’s Annual Fall Festival is always a good time for families to come together. It’s held in Late October each year in the church’s CAC building. Children come in costume to play various carnival-style games, jump in bounce houses, collect candy treats, and partake in a hot dog supper. The Fall Festival is also open to the community and church members are encouraged to invite another outside of the church to attend.
