By October 2011, the Sidewalk Petunia has had over 40 flowers on it. As frost comes, his strong volunteer will end its decorative stay as a front-door greeter to guests at our home.
Community in Communion – Buffalo Days Revisited
August 11, 2011
Buffalo Days featured a new event this year — a special Community WORSHIP Service at the Historic Palace Theater.
The Sunday Worship and service of open Holy Communion was sponsored by the First Presbyterian, Methodist, and Episcopal congregations of Luverne, MN.
Pastors Terry Morse, Donn Rakow, Emily Lodine, and dozens of community volunteers mde the service the success it was.
Thanks as well to our own Deb Vander Kooi, chair of First Presbyterian Church worship committee, for her initiative in planning for this event.
