Partey to visit Presbyterian Church Oct 19; Harvest Bazaar Nov 1

Fall is here, and that means that the Harvest Bazaar is quickly approaching.  The annual event is held at the Presbyterian Church in Soda Springs to bring the community together is a spirit of fellowship and service.  Funds raised during the bazaar are used to support projects taken up by the members, which have included the building of clean water wells where they are needed in Africa.  This year, the church will see a visit from one of the well project’s leaders before the bazaar itself takes place, which should be a wonderful way for members of the church and community at large to get a true sense of the nature and impact of the wells in Ghana.

The Presbyterian Women have funded a new well in Ghana, and Frederick Partey, former congregant who is from Ghana, and who oversaw the construction of all the wells, will be at our church Oct. 19, at 11:30 to give a presentation on the new well. It will be following the worship service and will be in the fellowship hall.  Everyone is welcome. We are hoping to fund a new well every year, as there continues to be a great need for clean water, closer to the villages. 

The Harvest Bazaar event is set for Sat. Nov. 1. The Harvest Bazaar has all the things people have come to look forward to, turkey dinner with all the trimmings, baked goods sale, and silent auction.  This year, the auction includes an adult three wheeled bike (trike?), craft table, beautiful quilt donated by the Quilt Guild for a raffle, lots of food and fun times with friends and neighbors.  Doors open 10:30, take-outs begin 10:45, dine in dinner served 11-1. 

Make sure to put both dates on your calendar!
