Veterans' Ice Cream Social

Members of the Outreach Team visited the Veterans last Sunday and served them ice cream and cookies. Anita Tanner made 144 of her signature sugar cookies for them.  All ice cream and cookies were eaten as they visited and listened to a guy play guitar and sing hits from the Vietnam era.  The most touching moment was when a veteran in his wheelchair wanted to sing. He sang beautifully with his wife, daughter, and all females there teary eyed when he finished. Thanks to the Outreach program in our church, we visit the Vets on a regular basis. Watch the Weekly Headlines for an announcement of the next Veterans' Ice Cream Social near Fourth of July.
