Olivia Narty and Clement Tetteh Kpakpah are engaged and a wedding is planned (tentatively) for August 23 in Richmond. Clement is pursuing a second Master’s degree in IT Audit & Cybersecurity at Temple University in Philadelphia. The couple met in Ghana during undergraduate studies at the University of Ghana 8 years ago. We wish them many years of happiness together.

Lemonade on the Lawn

We are now well into lemonade on the lawn. This requires one to set out a table, put out the lemonade (found in the refrigerator in the kitchen) and cups, and clean up. There is a sign-up sheet in the narthex for those who want to help with this fellowship event.


There are open dates in July and August. Thanks to those who already signed up.

​Monday Night Supper

Monday's meal was baked chicken from Kroger, rice, brocolli, fruit cup, and cookies. There were 85 meals served. Helpers were George and Marge, Ann Marie and Maria, Susan, and Bruce and Heidi.
