3rd Annual Community Festival was a Huge Success!

May 2, 2024 | Written by Faith Kelley

View Community Festival Photos Here!

Our Community Festivals have a unique way of bringing together our neighbors, community partners, and wonderful volunteers. This year’s 3rd Annual Community Festival did just that! We were joined by our 100 neighbors, 10+ community partners, and a handful of our faithful volunteers for a day of fun and fellowship. We are thankful to each hand and heart that made this event a huge success. It is always a blessing to see God’s people together united in His love.
