The Frymire family hosted their annual Sunrise Service on Easter morning. The service started about 6:30am and Pastor Curt Willems gave a brief sermon with Charilyn Damigo leading hymns and playing the keyboard. The sunrise was absolutely gorgeous and the weather was very pleasant, it wasn’t nearly as cold as it has been in the past! The Frymire family provided hot coffee and donuts and the church provided church benches and song sheets.
