On Sundays we spend a good portion of the day in the company of the Lord’s people, worshiping together in his house. On Wednesdays we hurry through supper and get ready for prayer meeting. At church, we joyfully sing songs of praise, worship with our giving, and then settle back to listen to the pastor expound the word of God. Nobody forces us to go to church. No one forbids our going. ' “We enjoy these freedoms, yet often we act as if these privileges could last forever. “The elementary students in our school have learned — as they study history— that our forefathers purchased freedom at a great price.” The play, “Sweet Land of Liberty,” is a gospel-centered play about the pilgrims flight to a religious free world. The community is invited to attend.

WEDNESDAY — Pizza, lettuce salad, mixed fruit, cookie and milk THURSDAY — Macaroni and cheese, sausage Enks, buttered broccoli, pineapple chunks, and milk FRIDAY — Fish wedge w/tartar sauce, mixed vegetables, jello w/fruit, potato chips, and milk Menu subject to change.
