The Stray Gathering Cowboy Church is gearing up once again to have “Sunday Vittles” on Sunday, Aug. 31. They are hosting Jackie Cox as their special guest for the day. Jackie will be bringing his music and the word for that Sunday. He is an award-winning singer/ songwriter. Here is a chance to enjoy some wonderful music, hear a great sermon and then dig into some delicious food. It is a pot luck dinner, so bring along your favorite dish to share and then get a chance to sample everyone else’s dishes to see what you might like to try back home yourself. Fellowship on Sunday mornings begins at 9:30 a.m. with coffee and sweet treats followed by worship at 10 a.m.

A fried chicken dinner fundraiser will be held on Sunday, Sept. 21, sponsored by the Carmine Hall.

Back at School School has started and children will be waiting in Winchester at area bus stops and riding on school buses. Please help keep them safe.
