Serving the Community

We were asked to serve the United Methodist Adult Christmas Party Dinner. The Middle School kids all came and did a great job. A few Mom's came to plate the dinner in the church kitchen. It was a busy busy time - but we were really appreciated by all those that came and enjoyed the dinner. Mrs. Morton made the group matching aprons with our Logo on them. Everyone looked fantastic - a truly OFFICIAL bunch of 4H'ers!
Here Gretchen is working to keep the coffee pot going, Donna is taking a well-deserved beverage break - it was REALLY HOT in that kitchen - 4 ovens had been running all afternoon with seven pork-roasts. Terri is getting ready to serve the dinner.

After dinner we served the final course - PIE! The church has a whole room dedicated to pie - THE PIE ROOM! WOW, what a fun concept! Every home should have one of these.

IN the end there were lots of dishes to be done by hand. Terri said she had NEVER seen so many dishes - and NO dishwasher, just our hands! Cindy, very well versed in Methodist dinner and kitchen work, came in near the end to pitch in a hand and help get this job done. Meanwhile, our great servers finally had the opportunity to enjoy some of the delicious food that they had been serving all night.
