Please join us for a fun night of trivia and dessert on April 21 6:30-8:30 in the Fellowship Hall. This serves as a fundraiser for our youth, particularly those headed to the National Youth Gathering this summer. The cost is $10 per person to play and teams are made up of eight people each. You are welcome to preplan your team or join a team when you arrive. There will be a variety of questions throughout the night and a break for dessert. Don’t worry, you can “buy” help on some answers as well. Questions? Contact Jennifer Morace 503.363.3920.
