The congregation gathered at the Pavillion at the home of Roy Beard for worship and fellowship and lots of good food. It was a different kind of service, with birds chirping and gentle (and welcome) breezes wafting through on the hot and humid afternoon. But as Ed pointed out, the church is wherever God's people are gathered together.
Roasting the pig is hard work.
And it smelled SO GOOD!
The Lord's Table - in a different setting.
And Holy Communion experienced in the great outdoors.
Ed delivers a message to an attentive group.
The pavillion was packed, but overflow seating was available.
