Prime Time Gloria Fox, Director of Senior Adults & Bible Study
On Wednesday, July 10, we will go to the History Museum by Forest Park to see the new additions to the 1904 World’s Fair Exhibit. While this exhibit has been at the museum for several years, it has been revamped. The exhibit, artifacts and images will bring to life a more complete picture of the fair showing it from the perspectives of the organizers, the visitors and even the workers. The bus will leave at 10 am and lunch will be after at Joey B’s.
Then on Monday, July 29 we will travel to Breeze, IL to the Excel Bottling Company to go on a tour and hear about its exciting origin. In 1936, Edward, “Lefty” Meier received a reward for catching a bank robber. He used his reward to purchase a used bottling machine. Using his wife’s grandmother’s house, they have expanded into a bottling plant. Excel is one of the few independent family bottlers in the nation. The bus will leave at 10 am. After our tour, we will have lunch at PJ’s Diner.
Hope you all are having a good summer. We are asking that if you know of one of our members in the hospital, please let the church office know, so a staff member, a member of their Bible Study class and a deacon can visit.
Keep up in your Bible Reading program this summer. We will be reading the letters to the churches at a pace that you can keep up with! Talk with others inside and outside of the church about what God is showing you through his word.
