Fall Festival:
This annual fundraiser is held in October. Members donate handmade crafts, baked goods, candy, jams, jellies, gently used books etc. and is open to the public. More than 500 postcards are sent out each year based on past attendance. Tables are also rented to outside vendors for the sale of their own products. Profits benefit Prince of Peace Ministries. Cookie Walk: A large variety of home-baked cookies are provided by our congregation in early December for sale to members, friends, and the community. This grew into a hugely popular event for the community with over 500 postcards sent out each year. Cookies sell very fast in a couple hours! Profits benefit Prince of Peace Ministries. Riverside Bible Camp: The congregation donates toward the cost of camp at Riverside for each member child attending. It does not matter which week the child attends. Registration forms are in the narthex. Trunk-or-Treat: This is a popular free and safe Halloween event open to the community. It is held the Friday before Halloween each year. Activities include trick-or-treating in our church parking lot where members bring their cars with open trunks decorated and loaded with candy.
