      Can a family have a weekend outing without spending a fortune?

From 4-6 p.m. there was face-painting, inflatable bounce rooms and slides, soap bubbles, music, food,drinks and cotton candy. Judy Taylor, mission director for the church, said, "Our purpose is to strengthen families in our community. This is our second event of this type. The next one will be Sept. 22. If families are strong then our community will be stronger and better because of it."
