ALL-CHURCH EVENT
Potluck: Summer BBQ
DATE — Sunday June 28
TIME — after 2nd service (about 12:30p)
Kicking off the summer season with a BBQ theme. Join us for a family potluck meal after second service. Follow the sign-up link below to see what’s needed, then sign up to bring something to share.
POTLUCK TIPS & HELPS
In order for us all to have enough to share, plan the size of your dish to be at least the size of what might feed your family. This may mean you could sign up to bring more than one thing.
We always need set-up and clean-up helpers — any and all help is welcome! Just show up.
And of course, allergies — so many varied ones in our church family, so labels are always appreciated! Our one main allergy ask is no peanuts please.
