Long Island Baptist Church Celebrates 20 Years

Yesterday my church celebrated it's 20th Anniversary! We held our regular Sunday morning service then for our evening service we all gathered at Jeff & Cheryl Johnston's home. We had dinner and our service under the big tent. It was a wonderful evening. Bro. Clayton and Bro Curtman preached, several members gave their testimonies, the history of our church was read, and special presentations were made. After the service we all gather around with our coffee or hot chocolate to sing songs around the bon-fire! It was a very special day for our church.
