Happy New Year!

MOVIE NIGHT: The next movie night will be on January 21st and will be “Faith Like Potatoes.” This movie is based on a true story of a farmer who moves his family to South Africa, suffers a series of losses, and only then discovers his life’s true purpose. A man whose faith, (like his potatoes) grows unseen until the harvest. Please join us for a pot-luck meal at 5:30 and the Movie at 6:15. Everyone is welcome!
Peace,
Pastor Floyd
