Happenings Week of October 20th

Ham and Egg Supper -- October 25th -- 4:00 to 7:00 pm

Everyone is invited to a Halloween Party on Friday, October 31st beginning at 7:00 p.m. at the church. We will have a bonfire at the pit for roasting hot dogs and marshmellows. We would ask that the adults bring your "trick or treat" goodies to the church so that the children can do a safe trick or treat. Would love to have volunteers to plan other activities such as games and/or crafts. If you are interested, please let me know. Also, I (Lisa) will do face painting. Everyone wear your favorite costume (adults too!!) and come have some fun!

Stratton Bridge on Long Creek in Oglethorpe County. This is not a bridge in the traditional sense. It is slabs of aggregate concreted, reinforced by re-bar and attached to each other with extremely large hook and eye. The slabs are sort of "floating" in the creek. At times, the water is just rushing between the slabs and at times there is a couple of inches of water on the slabs. Because of these slabs, there is a nice bit of falling water below the bridge and a large swimming hole above it.

This is part of the congregation. There were about 50 people at the creek to witness the baptism, including Bart, the dog.
