As a church congregation, everyday, we are humbly grateful for all military personnel who died while serving in the United States Armed Forces. We were honored to remember & mourn them on this past Memorial Day.🇺🇸🦅🇺🇸
As is tradition, we held our annual Memorial Day church food sale and would like to express our gratitude to all those who came and purchased an Indian Taco and spent time visiting & fellowshipping with us.
🇺🇸Just sharing a little but of history on our annual food sale:
****Some older church members recollect our food sale being held as far back as the 1960’s. At that time, there was a church youth camp held at Bacone College and the active youth in our congregation at that time, was raising funds from the food sale, to attend. Our food sale proceeds always benefit a critical need for our church and we are thankful to God for all those who support.
Historically, a Memorial Day observance and vigil was also held at our cemetery at 11:00 am, for many years. Many loved ones of those buried in our KCA cemetery (old cemetery) and our Rainy Mountain cemetery (new cemetery) would and continue to, pay their respects to loved ones throughout the day, and visit Gotebo Hall to cool off & refresh themselves. Older church members tell us that in the older days, Indian taco sales weren’t popular at that time, and because of this, hamburger plates would be sold. Beans and frybread is also very popular. Regardless of the year, the memorial day food sale has been a joyous time to gather as loved ones, to remember the brave veterans who sacrificed.****
