Fireworks and friendship

On Saturday night we played host to the city of Norwich as the whole town came out to watch the fireworks over the harbor. The missional church committee decided to take advantage of the large crowds that set up to watch the show from our lawn and use it for an opportunity to meet and greet them.

We came early and set up to serve popcorn, ice tea and lemonade to any who wanted it. We invited folks from the church to help greet and serve and quite a few came out to join us. I actually couldn't believe how many people showed up. They were everywhere. We got so many good reactions from people that it made you feel good. We turned down a lot of donations and ended up simply telling people we were glad they were there and to enjoy the show.

The night was a complete success. Here are a few photos from the event.
