A local Fairfield church will be offering a host of events and activities this Saturday, March 31st, as they participate in the city-wide Resurrection Celebration event.
Calvary Baptist Church has activities planned at the church from 11 am to 2 pm and every member of the family will find something to enjoy. For the second year, church members will be providing a free catfish dinner with all the trimmings.
Last year’s event was regarded as a tremendous success as more than 400 people were served the fried catfish meal. Plenty of tables will be provided for everyone to enjoy the sit-down meal and fellowship with old friends and to make new acquaintances.
Live music will once again be part of the celebration outside Calvary’s Life Center complex. Children will have numerous games to participate in with plenty of candy to be given out by church members
Many of the church’s well known bakers will be providing cakes for a cake judging contest. Those enjoying the fish luncheon will be able to sample a portion of those specialties as they will be served as dessert. Cookies and other items will also be provided.
Members of the Young Adult class at Calvary will have a table setup at the courthouse square Saturday with information about the events scheduled that day and other programs offered by the church.
“This is a tremendously enjoyable event for our Calvary family,” Pastor Terry Skinner stated. “As we celebrate and remember the resurrection of our Lord Jesus Christ next Sunday, we look forward to this time Saturday when we can spend a few moments with others from our community. Regardless of your church affiliation, we welcome you to join us.”
Calvary is located at 220 East Main in Fairfield. For more information, contact the church office at 903-389-2613.
