It's Gumbo Time at the Church of the Ascension!

Members of Church of the Ascension have prepared gumbo prior to Thanksgiving for several years to allow our gumbo to be an anticipated part of holiday meals. A gathering of friends, the Cajun trinity of vegetables, and okra are scheduled to prepare another batch of Church of the Ascension Gumbo.

The tradition of Church of the Ascension Gumbo began with a single pot, made to raise money to support a Church of the Ascension's EYC Outreach mission trip to another state. Profit from the gumbo has become an important part of the funding for the Church of the Ascension, including Outreach.

Your help is needed to prepare, stir, and clean-up on Friday evening, November 13th, and to pour gumbo into containers and sell gumbo the next morning, Saturday, November 14th. We will meet at the Gray House Friday evening at approximately 4:00 pm, to prepare gumbo. We will meet again Saturday morning, November 14th, beginning at 8:00 am to pour into containers and distribute. Please plan on helping to make gumbo on Friday evening and/or Saturday morning to help package and sell.

Please remember to tell your friends and family about Church of the Ascension Gumbo. Reserve your supply of Church of the Ascension Gumbo by calling the church office at 601-264-6773.
