150th ANNIVERSARY SERVICE AND FISH FRY: On August 21, we will be celebrating our 150th Anniversary once again. We will enjoy a catfish meal with all the trimmings after Worship in the sanctuary. The 150th Committee has worked very hard for a few years to plan details and many others have contributed ideas. Their work is very much appreciated. In past anniversary celebrations, there have been plays and programs presented. This year, we will enjoy fish, fellowship and friendship among our church family and friends. We will do this in the Fellowship Hall, instead of at the Community Center at the Mason Park. Feel free to invite your friends and family members to join us! Call LeEster Burch if you have any questions: 512-751-4497
