Second Sunday is a program for adults with development disabilities. The client base has grown to as many as 80 to 100 people over the past 20 years. They meet monthly, except July and August, for a time of food, fun, fellowship and education. Members and friends of the congregation donate, prepare and serve the meals and plan the programs.
WE HOPE TO RE-START THE PROGRAM AGAIN IN LATE 2021 OR EARLY 2022
