Thanks to everyone who joined us out at Pennytown on August 2nd. It was another wonderful homecoming with good food and fellowship. Thanks also to our special guest and speaker Mark Miles, and to all those who contributed time, labor, and money.

We would not be able to maintain the church and grounds without your generosity. We look forward to seeing you all again next year.
