American Cancer Society's
 Relay for Life

Each year our church has a team at the American Cancer Society's Relay for Life.  Contact the church office if you would like to be part of the official fund raising team from our church.  Team members commit to helping raise at least $100.00 to fight cancer by selling luminary bags.  The bags can be personalized to honor or remember someone with cancer.  The names are read during the Relay and  the luminaries are used to light the walking track.  Contact the church office or a  Relay team member to purchase luminary bags.
