Pastor/Staff Appreciation Luncheon 9/2/09

The table setting, an abundance of thanks to our New Hope Staff and Pastors


There was a drawing at the end, from a record player, jewery, to salad and dressing. Everyone that was there received something. Some in addition to feeding their appetite took the gift of a candy bar to fead their sweet tooth later.

Darlene was suprised and impressed!
