All Church Breakfast
Sunday Sept. 15, 9 am (Overmiller Hall)
These breakfasts (breakfast, brunch, feasts, etc.) are open to ALL families in our congregation as well those who come to visit our church.
A Little More Info:
-
This function is self-sufficient – that is, we are not budget funded by the church, but rather by your table donations at each meal. Those donations have typically been sufficient to purchase the foods we prepare with any extras going into purchasing kitchen supplies and equipment if monies allowed.
-
We wanted to make certain that everyone feels welcome to come. If you choose not to eat (we do try to provide something for everyone – those with allergies to foods to those with big appetites) come get a cup of coffee, tea, or juice and enjoy the fellowship with your church members!
-
If you want to help cook – everyone is welcome (men, women, young adults) and we think you find we have as much fun and enjoyment cooking as you do eating.

Sunday School Volunteers:
We're looking for spare hands to help with Sunday School as an aide. Our goal is to have a group of folks so that individuals will be helping once every three months or so. Men and women, young and old, it's your chance to hang for about 45 minutes with some of the funnest folks at church! Please stop by Pilgrim Hall before or after church for more information.
