We're looking for members of the community to come and help out by volunteering, providing live music, etc.

Join us for some old-fashioned fun on June 4, 2011. From 10 AM-2 PM, there will be a "back yard funfest" to benefit Koinonia, the community mission which is located on the grounds of Franconia UMC. Literally, we'll be in Koinonia's back yard to raise funds, collect non-perishable food items for its pantry, and raise awareness of the existence of this community treasure.
