Brighten the Night 2015


Here’s a summary of the night's events for those who were or weren’t able to be there.

1.       We gave out 350 gift bags, which only went to children

2.       We gave out around 500 hot dogs (we ran out with a line of people still waiting)(you’ll have to ask Brandon & Willie about the battle of the grills)

3.       We gave out I can’t even count how many hundreds of bags of popcorn

4.       The line for the cotton candy was the longest line most of the night

5.       We served gallons of hot chocolate

6.       We had roughly 500-600 people stop by

7.       One group came from as far away as Greencastle

8.       Five ladies kept very busy most of the night doing face painting

9.       We had about 40 of you helping which freed up the teens as well as me to spend the entire evening just being friendly and having conversations with community people

10.   There were several conversations about spiritual things

11.   The bounce house was busy all night with no break in kids wanting to jump around

12.   The Praise Team had at times 50 or more people inside listening to them worship & praise the Lord in song

13.   There were several who indicated an interest in attending a service

14.   We as a church received countless “Thank You” comments from the people, some who said they come every year because we do such a great job

15.   Plenty of you stayed around to clean up, so that went very quickly
