I am sure we cannot remember everyone to thank, but let’s give it a try. First, our all star Kitchen Krew. This team gave out over 350 plates of food, cooking, prepping and serving from a kitchen far smaller than the one at JIBC. They served a record number in record time. The Cookin’ Krew grilled hamburgers and hotdogs for Sunday’s picnic and enough for Celebrate Recovery Sunday night! Is there anything better than a grilled hamburger? Great job. The set up team was able to set all the tables and chairs, decorate and put out all the anniversary pictures and still made it back to JIBC in time for worship. Outstanding. Sean and company had the largest kickball I have ever seen. I stopped by to observe but ran for cover when recruited to be in the field! Marty and his band of praise provided great music for us to enjoy. That made three services for Marty and his crew. Before and after, we had dozens of volunteers helping to put up tables and chairs, carry equipment and clean up. Great servants one and all. Your church staff, as usual, went above and beyond the call of duty. They led, served, worked and even had time to enjoy fellowship. I am proud to serve with such a team. The amount of effort to pull of such an event is tremendous. It sure provided for an AAA+ day of enjoyment. I will say that after I got home from Sunday night’s Celebrate Recovery…I was toast! The overwhelming feedback was the day was a great success. Our thanks to all who made it so.
