School's Out for Summer!


Yesterday kicked off all of the exciting events we have going on this summer! Kings Island was a blast and after a full day of almost open to close at the park, everyone was very thankful for the coach bus ride on the way home!


This week, the highlights are that we need volunteers for the booths at picnic next weekend, as well as cake drop off runners. Mission Trip deadline is June 13th and we are down to 3 spots as of right now! We have added a free concert with Sarah Hart on June 26th, and much more! Scroll down to see all of the opportunities we have to offer!


Looking forward to a wonderful summer with you all!


Peace in Christ,
