It was a sunny Sunday in Bellevue State Park in Delaware for SsAM’s annual picnic. Lots of food and conversation, and a bit of exercise. Click here to see 22 photos by Danny N. Schweers.
SUMMER CHOIR!!! If you enjoy singing, but aren’t able to make a regular commitment during the year, come sing with the SsAM Summer Choir. You don’t have to read music and you can sing any Sunday that you are available … just come to a brief rehearsal before the service. To learn more about the SsAM Summer Choir, CLICK HERE or contact David Christopher through the church office.
