Pio Party this Friday!

Tuesday, May 13th, 2008

The Pio Party for the recent Men’s Walk #7 and Women’s Walk #8 will be held this Friday at First Baptist Church of Brunswick at 7PM. New Pios do not have to bring food so the community is asked to provide extra as we welcome our newest members of the Emmaus family. Come an hour early for Sponsor’s Hour to learn about sponsoring a pilgrim on upcoming walks. Let’s all come out and show our support for the new pilgrims. Childcare will be provided.

Decolores,
