Yum, Yum – Looks like breakfast at the Sunday School Easter Party was finger-lickin’ good. Leah and Rowan Dietrich took some time out from games and crafts to enjoy their painted toast and other breakfast goodies.
Clean up, clean up, everybody clean up. Remember the purple dinosaur’s song? Well, plenty of people took that song to heart on Sunday, April 21. There were groups all over Mountain Top giving our area a good spring cleaning. Among the groups was our own Adopt-a-Highway crew and pictured picking up the trash (literally) is Brooke Rinehimer. Thanks to everyone who cared enough about our communities to take the time to make it more beautiful.
Our Turkey Dinner was featured in a picture with Robert and Janet Gaudio of Drums sampling the delicious food. People come from all over our area and we are constantly told we have the best Turkey Supper. Thanks to everyone’s hard work and to the people who come out to enjoy it.

For because of this you also pay taxes, for rulers are servants of God, devoting themselves to this very thing. Pay to all what is due them: tax to whom tax is due; custom to whom custom; respect to whom respect; honor to whom honor. — Romans 13:6-7 (NASV)
