Church Picnic 2011

Memorial Day weekend we set up our tent for an outdoor worship service and a church picnic. A band from the Bonham VA called “Disciples of Christ” provided music before and after the worship service. The service included a recognition of those who had family members die in military service, those who are veterans, and those who have family members now serving in the armed forces.
The old fashioned picnic included sack races, a balloon toss, and a three-legged race. There was also a “pie contest” with thirteen entries, and Susan Knowles won the blue ribbon with an apricot/blueberry masterpiece. Gladys Longpre was third place with a rhubarb custard pie and Linda Hixson’s blueberry rhubarb was the second place entry.
The Men of Grace provided and cooked the burgers, bratwurst and hot dogs, and everyone else brought lots of great food to share.
We also held the drawing for the Ipad 2 raffled off by the Youth Group. This raised over $2000 to help the Youth attending the servant event at Camp Restore in July. The winner was Debbie Morris, a co-worker of Penny Williams.
It was a wonderful day of fresh air and fellowship and praising God together.
