Community Block Party


Yesterday, we had a Community Block Party in Downtown Leakesville. We estimate that 450 to 500 people were present. Six churches and six different orgranization were represented. We had several inflatables and we gave away hot dogs. The District Attorney's Office gave away popcorn. The closing event was an outdoor showing of the movie, Facing the Giants.

At our booth we distributed around 100 Christian CDs, including Rick Warren's The Invitation, which gives a clear plan of salvation.
Our Area Missions Director, Jimmy Holcomb, planned a similar event around 3 years ago and he estimated around 200 attend at that time. So, we were encouraged by the support from the community.
