Claire & Alston Allen celebrated their50th anniversary on April 26th. The congregation had planned to surprise them with a basket of cards, a bouquet of flowers, and a musical tribute . They were unable to attend church on that day, but elders of the church delivered the cards and flowers, then prayed with them for their daughter Denise who was quite ill. Claire & Alston's stong faith in God and love for each other is a shining example to our church family. |
