We had such a great time at our old time church picnic today! Big thanks to the Women in Mission for all their hard work putting it together, you did a wonderful job!

We had a pie tasting contest, lots of good food, games, bingo, and even accordion music. It was a fun day for everyone.

Thank you to everyone who brought food, everything was delicious!

So thankful for our church family and a day full of laughter, fun, and fellowship.
