Of course, if you have an abundance, please do not be shy about adding items for others in need.

The Pastor of River of Life Church, Reverend George Procell, would like to thank the community of Goldonna for coming together to help provide a lovely fellowship meal for the family of longtime member and former Mayor, Jenny Garner Smith. “During times like this, we all mourn together and it really shows what a tight knit community we are. We are grateful for our area church families.”
