Sunday Afternoon Youth Outing

On Sunday, December 23, some of our young people accompanied me to go and deliver cookies and holiday messages out to some of our members and friends. Some are shut-ins and others are members, but we all had a great time. We ended up at the Nursing and Rehad Center in Walnut Ridge. The young men helped with the church service there, and we visited with the residents.
