Pastors Notes:

Our annual FallFest is over andwhat a time we had!!!!Attendance was way up

compared to last year and the weather wasBEAUTIFUL!!!!!! Several of the foods sold out, the country store was WONDERFUL, thesilent auction had many varieties this year and the singing/worship was great!!!!! I cannot thankeach and everyone that helped enough. We had several men that worked almost every day of lastweek getting the property cutmany of them had allergies and sinus trouble but they gave their

time and made the property beautiful. Please know that our words cannot thank you enough forthe great sacrifices made for this past weekend. Whether you cleared the property, moved tables& chairs, sound equipment, cooked, prepared, gathered supplies, helped with country store, silentauction, sang, prepared the singing line up, helped with games, picked up vehicles to usethroughout the day, gathered ice, parked cars, lined the parking lot, put up the boundary posts,brought trash cans, emptied trash cans, sold drinks, made signs, put out signs, put outposters..OR..if you came and bought items, ate on the grounds, sat under the tent and

worshipped with the singers..THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU!!!! If I forgotsomething that you did, please know that it was not intentional and whatever you did was VERYIMPORTANT!!!!! As you can tell, many, MANY people are necessary to make something likeFALLFEST come across as a success.

All the money has not been turned in so we cannot give you a figure for the total of FallFest.The Sunday afternoon VISION OFFERING was just a little over $3881. To God Be TheGlory!!!
