MOVIE NIGHT: Friday, June 7 at 7:00 PM at the Mills site. Come as we watch Courageous. Four men, one calling: to serve and protect. When tragedy hits home, these men are left wrestling with their hopes, their fears, their faith and their fathering. Protecting the streets is second nature to these men. Raising their children in a God-honoring way? That's courageous. For more information contact Beth Yenca at yenca615@consolidated.net or 724-295-3422.
