Two Grace Brethren churches hosted helicopter egg drops as an outreach in their community.
“Wow…what a day! Weather was great!,” Pastor Mike Silliman at Elk Creek Church in West Grove, Pa., wrote on his blog this week. “Tons of people showed up. I have no idea how many people…If I had to guess, I would say 3,000-3,500!” The photo at right is from their event, which was held on Saturday, March 22. (See blog post from Thursday, March 20, 2008 for more details.)
Catalyst Church, a Grace Brethren congregation in Kent, Ohio (Jonathon Herron, pastor), also held a helicopter egg drop on Saturday. To see coverage of that event, click here. (There is also information on this blog. See the Friday, March 07, 2008 post.)
BTW, Elk Creek’s event on March 30 with Jon and Kate Gosselin, of TLC’s Jon & Kate Plus Eight, is sold out. However, Pastor Silliman has 25 tickets left. Visit his blog to see how you can win a pair!
