Blessings of Liberty Program at Faith Presbyterian
The second of the two-part program highlighting the faith of America’s founding fathers, “Celebrating the Blessings of Liberty” is this Saturday, June 20. We will have patriotic music together with lessons on the charters of Freedom—the Declaration of Independence, Constitution, and Bill of Rights. These are family events with refreshments and activities following the programs, and the church would like to see support from our Troop families by attending this event. We hope you will join us and bring your neighbors and friends! The doors will open at 3:30, program will be from 4:00-5:00, with refreshments served afterward. Our Scouts will be providing the color guard for this event – those who volunteered for the color guard need to be there at 3:00 for rehearsal.
