Merry! Merry Christmas to you! The countdown is on. Ready or not, the "Big" day is Monday. Get yourself in high gear and get ready.
Sunday night, December 10th, was the Christmas play at Mt. Pisgah Church. The children and the youth presented a play entitled "The Not-So-Silent!" They all did a wonderful job carrying out their parts. Fellowship and refreshments were enjoyed afterwards. It was great having visitors joining us. Special thanks to those who helped make this program possible.
