S.O.S. . . .well, you remember what that was like in the Chow Hall. We promise, ours taste much better. Chipped Beef and Gravy served on toast, eggs cooked to order, and always a special little something extra such as waffles or potato casserole. Come join Trixie in the Intergenerational Room. Because of the terrific turnout and demand, we're going to try having breakfast with Trixie every Friday in October. If participation remains high on a weekly basis, we'll continue it. But, if it dwindles, we'll go back to twice per month. So, it's up to you. Always check the Older Adult bulletin boards for date changes. Please sign up each week at the welcome center table. Reservations are necessary.

BIBLE STUDY Mondays: 1:00 - 2:00 p.m.

Join us in the Intergenerational Room for a non-denominational Bible Study Group. The open forum provides the opportunity to ask those questions you would like to have answers to. Maybe you know the answers and could help guide some of the discussions. We do have some new adult Christians that are full of questions and need the nurturing of other Christians to help them in their studies. Such questions that have arisen so far: When did Satan fall? When did evil first appear? Was Eve really at fault in the Garden of Eden? We will also enjoy a monthly pot-luck luncheon. You are welcomed and encouraged to join us.
