FESTIVAL HAS BEEN POSTPONED TO 9/29-10/1

The peace and love of our Lord, God and Savior Jesus Christ be with you all.

It was a very difficult decision given that many people have worked so hard to get ready for our festival and have taken vacation time in order to be present and support and serve during these days but given the heavy rainfall and the high winds we are postponing the festival to the next weekend (9/30 – 10/1).

We appreciate all of your support and service and look forward to seeing you next weekend.

Please pray for the success of the festival. 

Be safe in the Lord.
