BB&B’s Dinner / New Baby / Graduates

Baby Boomers & Beyond Annual Covered Dish

Saturday, June 3

The Baby Boomers & Beyond will have their annual meal together on Saturday, June 3

at 5:00 PM. We will enjoy a covered dish and a movie (and maybe even popcorn) in

the Family Life Center. Please come out and share a meal of fabulous dishes and enjoy

the fellowship - and these people know how to cook! If you have never joined us

before and wondered how the Baby Boomers ‘party’ (or just sit and talk), come on

out and find out. Call Frank or Dianne Huffman (828-464-8662) for any details

needed.

Congratulations -

New Baby!

Jeff and Jennifer Wofford have a new grandson.

William Lane Wofford was born on May 25 to Jared
