      Wear Pink Oct. 6


      WEAR PINK OCT 6 –
       Support the race against breast cancer by wearing pink to a worship service Sunday, October 6. (Or by wearing the official Especially For You race t-shirts… they are lavender!)

      While many of our members will be at the race downtown, we also want to join the effort to end breast cancer which has affected many within our church community.

      For each individual who wears pink or the lavender race shirt, the deacons have decided to donate $2/person in support of the race against breast cancer. Thank you for helping support free mammograms and other related services for area individuals in need and the many families in our church and community affected by breast cancer.
