Halloween evening, the United Pentacostal Church in Johnson Park invited the community to share a Fall Harvest Extravaganza. There was candy for the kids and food and fellowship for all.
The fun began at 5:30. Pastor John Peterson and two of the youngsters went out by Hwy 299 enthusiastically inviting the community to share in the festive gathering.
