Harvest Party 2023
On October 31st, 2023, we had our first indoor Harvest Party in four years. Thanks to all those who donated candy, or helped with security, the games, the haunted house, the costume contest, or in the kitchen. Pastor J. Andrew McCoy and his members turned out to enjoy the fun with Rev. B. Downing and the OLPC family. A great time was had by the adults and children alike.
Pick Your Decade!
On October 29th, 2023, members, families, and friends helped us honor 7 members/friends with fall milestone birthdays. Tamiya, Jackie, Terrine, Cathy O., and Adelaide were celebrated. Trish and Sonia could not attend.
We had yummy food and a cake that was gorgeous as well as delicious. Special thanks to Theresa for the Motown tunes, and Myra for hosting Decade Jeopardy. It is a blessing to be able to show folks how much they are loved. May the birthday ladies have many more happy and healthy years ahead of them.
