The Great Pumpkin Patch:

 

The Annual Great Pumpkin Patch was started in October 2007. It was a month long event as a fund raiser but proved to be more importantly an outreach tool.  People come from all around to visit our "Patch" and select their pumpkin. Members work shifts at the "Patch"  and visit with people, tell them about the great history of our church, share their love for Christ and have available church information that is quite often asked about. Local school groups come to the Pumpkin Patch as a field trip for free.  They play in the Pumpkin Patch, have story telling, face painting and games.
