Our Cleanup on Saturday, April 27 was very successful! We had 22 participants ranging in age from about 5 to 75+ & we filled a whole dumpster with the collected trash. Teams worked in Riverside Park, the Church parking lot & grounds, the Heritage Trail, the town dike, along the east side of the Fish River by the bridge & the beginning section of Violette Settlement Road. We thank everyone who participated with us & all those who cleaned up on their own. We believe that EARTH DAY IS EVERYDAY, so it is always a good time to pick up trash anywhere you find it. Let's pray that all of us truly appreciate the gift of Creation & commit to keeping it clean, healthy & beautiful for all God's creatures.
