This quarter’s fat cow celebration theme was old fashioned, and some folks even wore clothing that would have been typical during the 1930's era.  We built a brush arbor on our platform and began the day by reflecting on our heritage.  It was amazing to see just how far we've come over the last 70 plus years.  The first church that was built would not have even been able to accommodate our Children's Church or Student Ministry attendance.  But the most exciting part of the service was getting to celebrate all the new additions to the West Point family over the last four months.  Over 50 people were honored and over 40 were baptized in Jesus name and most of them have already received the Gift of the Holy Ghost which is promised to everyone who repents and is baptized.  It was once again noted by our Pastor that the number of  those who were baptized this quarter wouldn't have been able to fit within the old frame church or first rock building. 

 

The McGruders were with us for this special service and they did a phenomenal job of making the day a overwhelming success as they tied the past to the present and increased our faith for the future.  Next we flooded out onto the property for dinner on the grounds and a day filled with fall games and activities for everyone.   The day ended with a bonfire and a weenie roast and a four trailer hayride.  It was a blast, check out the photo gallery of this event and make plans now to be at our next Spring Celebration!
