International Extravaganza II

International Extravaganza II
If you and your family had a good time at the first International Extravaganza at Peoples Church last year you should have "an experience" again at this year’s event. This year we turn our mission interests to the Far East. Last year you recall we were involved in learning more about short term missions in Latin and South America. On the evening of May 9 commencing at 6 PM you will have an opportunity to be immersed in the culture of the Philippine Islands. Promptly at 6:15 the program will begin with a program titled "A Glimpse of 7,107 Islands-The Philippines." Michelle Saracanlao Greer and friends will begin the program with an introduction to the evening’s program.
Rosemary Herd and some of Michelle’s friends will then have prepared a feast of Philippine favorites including Egg Rolls, Stir fry vegetables, BBQ Chicken, Jasmine Rice and fruit salad and sticky rice for dessert. Drinks that will be available will be mango juice and pineapple juice.
The meal will be served at 6:30 but make sure you don’t miss the introduction at 6:15!
Part 2 of the program will commence following the meal at approximately 7:15.
If you are interested in a trip away from the rocky coast of Maine and to hear stories of the South Pacific you won’t want to miss this evening! Who knows you may be lucky and win a door prize and experience a number of other delights!
I f you are interested in coming please make reservations no later than May 4 for you and your guests. Please either call in your reservations to the church phone at 799-1413 or drop your reservations in the offering plate before May 4. Donations will be gratefully received to defray expense and to support a program of Elder Care in the Philippines.
