Thank you so much to everyone that came to our Easter breakfast! We loved getting to spend the morning with you all—it meant a lot to us. Also, a huge thank you to everyone who donated eggs and coffee cake, we couldn’t have done it without you! We’re really thankful to be part of such an awesome and supportive church family. Thanks for always showing up for us!
