Mother Daughter Brunch 2011

There is a special relationship between a mother and a daughter. On Saturday, April 30, the Family Life Center of Central United Methodist Church celebrated that relationship with a mother-daughter brunch. All women are currently either a mother or a daughter and so the brunch was opened to all.

Here is a short video of all the fun! If you missed it, I hope to see you next year.






Michelle

The Family Life Center was host to CUMC Harvest Festival 2010. We had a wonderful time. Thank you so much to Ann Collins and CUMC Youth for The Wages of Sin room. It's amazing how 8 teenagers can turn black garbage bags, spider webbing, room props and their imagination into the highlight of the night. Special thank you to the parents of Pack 215 and 288 for your AWESOME support.
