15TH ANNIVERSARY CELEBRATION OF THE PUMPKIN PATCH 

TODAY AND EVERY DAY IS A GOOD DAY TO GIVE THANKS TO GOD. He has been kind and blessed us as His children as we celebrate the 15th Anniversary of the Pumpkin Patch held at St. Francis Episcopal Church here in Denham Springs. The Pumpkkins are on there way and the delivery date is SUNDAY OCTOBER 10, 2010 AT 10AM. Therefore, right after the morning service we will start the project of unloading the trailer. Please mark your calendars and commit yourselves to this special Sunday of Pumpkins!

15th Anniversary Celebration is SATURDAY, OCTOBER 16, 2010 starting at 8:00am till 7:00pm. Plans are being made for fun and special activities for the children and parents all. I would not be surprised if we are graced with the presence of a 'special visitor' on this special day. 

The dates of the Pumpkin Patch are SUNDAY, OCTOBER 10, 2010 TO SUNDAY OCTOBER 31, 2010. The times of the patch are from 8:00am to 7:00pm Monday to Saturday; and 12:00 noon to 6:00pm on Sunday. Therefore, everyone please mark your calendar and volunteer to help out when and where needed.

Introduction of the Officers for the Patch are as follows:

Jim and Jennifer Wingate:  Coordinators; Dianne Gill, Assistant Coordinator; Linda Moore, Operations Manager.

We are in the process of establishing a FACEBOOK PAGE for the Pumpkin Patch with a link to the address. Look for this to appear in the near future. The e-mail address we are using for public domain is jimgate101@yahoo.com.

The next meeting date for Pumpkin Patch Officers and Volunteers is Sunday, August 15, 2010 @ 12:30pm. Please everyone try to attend this special call for service to your church and the community. I am very excited about the future for St. Francis and the direction we are moving as we celebrate God's love for his people.

I look forward to seeing you there!
