ELIZABETHTOWN FAIR PARKING SERVICE PROJECT

MONDAY, AUG 19–SATURDAY, AUG 24

EBIC's fair parking tradition continues—be part of working together, greeting the community, assisting those in need, and praying for God's hand in the workings of the Elizabethtown Fair and its participants. Lots of people in the congregation are needed to make this happen and there’s something for everyone to do! Parking fund proceeds are given to local organizations that serve our community in the name of Jesus. Sign up below or at The HUB in the church lobby on Sunday mornings!
