Friday night October 25th at 6:30 is our annual hoedown and each one is more fun than the one before. If you think church is boring and stiff and no fun at all, you will have all your preconceptions about church proven wrong after attending the Rootin’ Tootin’ Hoedown. We’ll start with homemade chili made by various church members with all the…
