Tomorrow is the LAST Day to Get Chicken Chili Tickets

Ruth Circle will have their annual Chicken Chili Lunch on November 6th.

We are now selling tickets between all three services on Sundays.

The tickets must be purchased by Oct. 30th so we will know the number of people. The price of the tickets: $8 per adult, $5 for children between 5 and l0 years. Children under 5 will be free. Family ticket for $30.

Consider pre-ordering a handmade cornucopia at the Chicken Chili Luncheon ticket area.

The price is $20 and the proceeds will benefit the Building Fund. They will be ready for pick-up at the luncheon on November 6. (They are sturdy enough to mail as a gift.)
