The Miller Press did a nice story

on the history of the church,

if you're interested please

St. Placidus Church

All are invited to this event.

Organizers are asking for any photos

or historical items be brought to the event to share.

Sall and I will be there!  Sall Construction installed 

St. Placidus' first ever bathroom last fall!

(that got us a special invitation:)

I think it was all part of the big plan

leading up to a big celebration...

It will be a fun afternoon,

a tent will be set up in the church yard

and hopefully nice weather will grace the day!

Hmmm, better put on my thinking cap

 for a potluck dish....

Potato Salad??

Cucumber Salad??

mmmm, I'm already tasting all 

those great church lady recipes....

and feeling full already!
