CERRO GORDO CELEBRATION

The Cerro Gordo congregation would like the district to be aware that we are planning a special day of celebration on Sunday, August 10 in honor of the 300th anniversary of the denomination and the 100th anniversary of the construction of our current brick building. All are invited to attend. We will begin the day with a special Sunday school session for all ages conducted by Howard Shockey, at which Alexander Mack is rumored to make an appearance. Worship will be led by Rex Richardson, interim pastor, with Walt Wiltschek giving the message. Following a potluck noon meal, Dan Krall will be presenting an afternoon session on the history of the Brethren in the Cerro Gordo area. We hope to have a good display of historical items in our church fellowship hall. More details will follow for the August newsletter.
