    • Communion cup filling
    • Setting up & taking down chairs & tables

  • The annual Region-wide business meeting

The committee planning this event, would like to offer congregations in the Region, the opportunity to sell all of the food for the day-long event.  The Gathering time for the event will begin at 9:00 a.m. – so food booths could consist of items for breakfast, brunch, lunch, drinks and snacks, i.e., rolls, coffee, muffins, sandwiches, sloppy Joes, BBQ, hotdogs, pie, lemonade, cotton candy, etc.  This could be a fun fundraiser for congregation, youth group, CWF, etc.

If your congregation would like to host a food booth, please fill out the registration below by June 25th and mail, email or phone the info to Connie or Bert at: 5064 Lincoln St, Newton, IA 50208  or Email: cddumw@gmail.com or Ph: 515-255-3168.
