A sincere thanks to our church family for all the support we received to make ‘Loved First’ fundraising events a success! Special thanks to everyone who donated items for the auction and/ or garage sale and for help with setting up, working shifts, purchasing items, and helping to clean up after each event. Also, we are very thankful for extra hands boxing up unsold items that will be shipped to Uganda and loading and delivering tables after the events. Your help made these events successful!  Eva Beeker, Phiona Jorgensen, Ramona King, Bill and Janell
