Adult Luncheon To Be Held November 9
Join us at 11:30 am in the Christian life center! The fall luncheon will feature recipes from Salem’s new cookbook. Guest speaker Steve Giordano will share his experience as a survivor of the 9/11 attack. Giordano was on the 25th floor of tower 1 when the attack happened. He will share his own personal experience, how it has shaped who he is today and what he believes we can all learn from 9/11. Please extend this information to others and be sure to register by November 5. Cost of the meal is a donation and the sign-up sheet is outside the church office.
