Senior Adults Honored for Past & Continued Support – May 2, 2010
A team effort went into the 36th Annual Senior Adult Luncheon to honor the senior citizens of our church for past and current support of our church. The event began with a tasty meal of orange glazed chicken, rosemary potatoes, sauteed vegetables, a roll, and red velvet cake prepared by Bryan Press of Monarch Catering.
Then, Payton Beggs (a Junior at Old High) took the stage, wowing the honorees with her beautiful voice on old-time and modern country tunes.
Next, awards were given:
Potted Flowers:
Thanks to a generous donation of Tammy & Kristian Kowing of the Exodus Sunday School Class, someone at each table received a potted flower that served as the center piece for each table!
2009-2010 Sunday School Attendance:
- 100% – Harry & Evelyn Kinkead (Win-Some);
- 98% – Barbara Davis (Win-Some); and
- 96% – Ed Kuhn (All Saints) & Mary Leath (Fidelis).
