NOTES FROM THE WEEKEND- PART 1
What a weekend! Kudos to our entire team of leaders and servants who put on an incredible Community Harvest Festival. It was great. We had tons of FREE food and hot drinks, a cool band called Slapdash, about 5 inflatable games, tons of candy, competitions, kids games, decorations, face painting, music, funny dramas, and a crowd of people.
This was one of our best events yet. We were able to have tons of fun with those in our community, give away lots of cool stuff, plus stuff our faces. I even got a chance to share Jesus with the all of our guests. My point was taken from a funny human video (acting set to a song) called "No More Monsters." I talked about how we all have monsters in our life (things that preoccupy, distract, worry, and consume us; that stir fear in us), and the only way to live free of fear is to invite Jesus to be the great Rescuer of our soul.
We had about 350 people total. And most of them were our guests. Shout outs to Randy and Beckie Martin for a wonderful job overseeing the whole event, Rich and Lori for running the kids end of things, and the whole cooking/ hospitality team for doing a great job with the food. And a final huge thank you to Mid-Atlantic Master Commission- I've never seen a better group of servants and hard-working, God-loving young people. They carried the day, and we couldn't have done it without them. Thanks so much. Eternity will be populated differently because of your efforts.
