Community Harvest Party
On Saturday October 25th, Shippensburg First Church of God will be joining with Grand Point Shippensburg, the Love Our Town initiative, and several other area churches to bless our community with a Harvest Party Outreach event, and You’re Invited! & Bring a Friend or two!
The event will run from 4-8PM at the Shippensburg Fairgrounds (10131 Possum Hollow Rd, Shippensburg) and you are welcome to come & go as you please.
The main event is free and open to the public—invite your friends & neighbors! To help us with planning and estimating, we do encourage you to RSVP on the clipboards in Sunday School Classes or the Gathering place, although preregistration is not required.
