Hello Family,
St. J’s Chili Cook Off 3.3
The Chili Cook Off was quite a success. We had 15 entries and raised $522.10 for the Home Works Mission Trips! A huge thank you to all who made chili, and to those who came out and supported St. John’s and enjoyed the fellowship! Also, congratulations to the Meacham Family for winning the Chili Cook Off, and a The Dillard Family for taking a close second.
