BBQ this Sunday & White Water Rafting Trip on the 15th

Sunday, August 9     So we are doing another BBQ this Sunday following our 11 a.m. service (You bring your favorite salad and/or chips or desert - we'll bring the rest).  It's fun.  If it's hot you can eat in our air-conditioned auditorium or outside in the sun.  It's a great way to start/build friendships that will make a real difference in your life!

Oh wow, Bruce has finally (Can you believe it?) posted his favorite BBQ rub for burgers (Did you try one?) AND . . . some added ideas for building the juiciest, best burgers ever - check it out!
