Kudos to the Cooks
The
reception Sunday for Jim and Sonja Dant was a big success. The
great room was full to overflowing with well wishers. The room was
tastefully decorated, the food was attractively and conveniently
displayed, and the circulation patterns were highly effective.
Empty plates and cups were quickly collected by smiling youth.
Every delicacy was delicious and the trays kept being magically
replenished as the hungry crowd fellowshipped and expressed their love
and good wishes to the Dants. Two weeks of planning and four
straight days of work at the church helped make the whole occasion
appear to come off effortlessly. Our heartfelt thanks go out to
the ladies and youth who served us all so well.

We will enjoy sharing

activities. You can sign up for this event in the children's area or by
