This year is not just any Rally Day. It is the beginning of our hundredth year in this building, and we are ready to celebrate with joy, gratitude, and plenty of barbecue. A blessing of the backpacks for kids, youth, and educators as a new school year begins, and a joyful kickoff to Sunday School. Bring them forward and let’s...
We’re rounding off Rally Sunday with a backyard BBQ feast on the church patio! After worship, head out back where tables will be set and the spread will be waiting. Bring your BBQ best—ribs, brisket, pulled pork, grilled veggies—or one of the classic sides that make a cookout complete: coleslaw, baked beans, mac and cheese, potato salad, cornbread, you name...
