What a great evening September 25 was. Lots of fun carnival games sponsored by our owner churches. Good food thanks to a generous community member for the hamburgers and the great dietary staff for preparing it. And of course the beautiful music brought to us by Megan and Zach Entz and the Horner sisters.
