FCC Homecoming Updates

Plans are moving along well and all committees are working diligently to make sure that this week-end will truly be a blessing for all who are able to attend.

A Coffee House setting in the Family Life Center gym on Friday night, October 6th, will be a time for singing, reminiscing and visiting with old and new friends. Julie Smith and her committee will be handling refreshments for that night. Bruce Smith is organizing a golf outing for local members/friends and out-of-town visitors for Saturday, October 7th. Exact time and other particulars will be posted in early September.

Karen Gronski will be working with the Grundy County Chamber of Commerce to plan a shopping trip to begin after coffee and donuts at the Church's Family Life Center on Saturday morning, October 7th. This will give all those that are returning an opportunity to see the changes that have been made to the beautiful downtown Morris area, as well as to visit and shop at the interesting and unique Morris stores.
