Hamburgers and hotdogs will be served and church members are asked to bring a side dish. Please list your dish on the sign-up sheet in Rose Hall so we do not have too many duplications. We have a food tent, grill, one Easy-Up, two corn hole sets and two bocce ball set. If you have an Easy-Up or lawn games that you will bring please list those on the sign-up sheet in Rose Hall. You may want to bring lawn chairs for the picnic. Come early on Sunday morning if you can help move the Rose Hall chairs outside for the service. Emmanuel church members are invited and please invite your friends and neighbors. Currently, the weather forecast for the 28th is sunny with a high of 85 and no chance of rain.
