Picnic Pictures

About 50-60 volunteers from a variety of Love INC partner churches recently came together for food, fellowship and fun at the Aug. 11 Love INC picnic.

What a blessing! A whole community center full of hardworking, giving Christians who were sitting back, relaxing, laughing and enjoying each other in Christ's Name! We met new friends and reconnected with old ones.

Staff brought hot dogs and polish sausage, condiments and buns, and served the volunteers.

The purpose of the picnic was to thank the people who are Love INC, to meet each other (since we all serve in different capacities and often don't cross paths) and to simply enjoy a couple of hours together in the love of Christ.

Many thanks to everyone who helped set up and clean up, and for everyone who came! Here are a few pictures of the event, which was held at the River Rock Community Center.

We had such a good time (and ate such yummy salads and desserts), we hope to have a picnic again next year!

Picnic for the Volunteers

A potluck picnic for current Love INC volunteers will be held on Aug. 11, 6-8 pm, at the River Rock Community Center (Take Amsterdam Rd. to River Rock Rd. and watch for the sign and balloons). You are considered a current volunteer if you have a Talent Tithe on file or you have served through Love INC in the past twelve months.

This is an opportunity for staff to thank the volunteers who do the work of serving others and who are the Love INC ministry! We will provide hot dogs, brats, buns and condiments, along with tableware and beverages. Tables and chairs are available in the pavilion (so we can have the picnic rain or shine).

Volunteers, please bring your choice of a salad or dessert (or some other type of side dish). Bring lawn chairs and blankets if you desire. Volunteers' families are welcome.

This will be a fun time to eat and meet! See you at the picnic on Tuesday!
