	Picture of the month! Some of the youth from our church on a youth group trip to the zoo back in 1987. Who do you recognize? Picture of the Month Archive Balloons and cotton candy are always popular with the young ladies at Community Fest which is happening this year on August 14th. Since VBS happens this month, we figured we'd give you a shot of our youth director, Jason Brannan, at last year's VBS! June 2006 Church Picnic (sponsored by the Sunday School) Something seems wrong in the picture. Can you find it? Guess who's 50! (photos courtesy of Allan McKeown, Pat McKeown, and Angel Guertler) In honor of the month of Easter, here we have two nicely dressed young people checking out the Bibles in the pew a few years back. These two children are now both Elders of our church (and married to each other). The future leadership of our church circa 1988! Two elders, two trustees, a church treasurer, a nurse, two teachers, and two mysterious legs in the back. After recent trouble with their top secret laptop, the Trustees installed a hidden camera to catch the culprit. (just kidding) With our first pancake breakfast of 2010 happening in January, we thought we'd show you a magazine cover of our world famous chef! Christmas is a time when we celebrate the birth of a child in Bethlehem. It's a special time for children of all ages. Check out this picture of a child of our church, Matthew King, as he checks out a book in our library. (Photo by Joel Kamm -- notice the book title) These 2 photos were provided by Barbara King of her Sunday School Department back in the 90's. This famous chef will be cooking for the October Pancake Breakfast! Rev. Bruce Barstow and Rev. Roger Manao on Worldwide Communion Sunday. (Photo courtesy of Jane Dovan) One of our church's helpers at Community Day 2005 (Ok, ok, it's Brandon doing the cotton candy!) Sunday School Picnic 2009 Group Picture June is always Church Picnic Month (except for the years when it's in another month). In the interest of creating excitement about this year's picnic on June 20th, the above is a collage of pictures that were taken at the annual pie eating contest at the church picnics 2002-2008. Since this is the month of May, the Picture of the Month is one from May of 1991. Can you name these "Kids Praisers" from our church who were singing at a Northeast Christian Endeavor breakfast??? Peter Becker, Margaret Moore, Michael Moore, Jake Becker, Kevin Barbor, Trisha Guertler, Sharon Guertler, Krista Barbor. These pictures were taken at a Women's Association Banquet back in the late 80's. Who can you identify? These people have been identified: Joe Bernier, Bill McKeown, George Whitehill, Howard Guertler, Bill Kavash, John Dovan, Artie Greenwood, Glen Kavash, Bill James, and Cliff Shearer. Also, the event has been brought into question as not being a Women's Association Banquet. Got postseason??? Yes, we did! One year ago at the January Game Night these four young men all sported matching Phillies t-shirts which asked if we "got postseason?". Well, we all know what the Phillies did later on that year! Pictured are Allan, Brandon, Joel, and Kevin. Found this picture in a drawer. Don't know who took it. It was taken during the Christmas season back in the 80's. Can you identify the event? UPDATE: A few people have guessed the event correctly and even identified the backs of some of the heads. If you don't know, here it is: it was the baptism ceremony for Katie Frank and Kevin Barbor performed on December 28, 1986 by Dr. Caraher. The picture was probably taken by Dick Barnes. <Click here for more>
