Thomas Point Bluegrass Festival ~ Sunday Morning Worship

Sunday, August 31

1 (1)We have never attended the 9:00 AM worship service on the beach ~ because we like to stay in touch with the church friends where Mark and Diane and their family attend.

But this year we decided that we were going to join the beach fellowship ~ and we were glad we did.

1 (2)We were excited to see so many people at the service.
