Pentecost Sunday BBQ Celebration ~ May 27
Here’s hoping you will join us next Sunday, May 27, for Pentecost with Roseland Christian Reformed Church. The service will be followed by a BBQ Potluck ~ spiced up with greens, salads, mac and cheese, and peach cobbler. It is a wonderful way to celebrate the pouring out of God’s Spirit, the beginning of summer, and the joy of the kingdom with our friends from Roseland. We will provide the BBQ….. We just need you to bring salads and desserts to pass. So, last names ending:
A – O bring a salad
P – Z bring a desert
Join us for a wonderful experience of worship and fellowship.
