St. John’s United Methodist Church, of Parsons, celebrated summer with its annual Church Picnic held on Sunday, June 30 at Millrace Park. Following regular morning worship services, Sunday school was cancelled to allow families extra time to gather their things for the picnic.

The meal consisted of grilled hotdogs and hamburgers with all the fixings, provided by the Sunday School, complimented with a host of old-fashioned favorite covered dish sides and desserts.
Following the meal, individuals enjoyed a host of games including volleyball, badminton, bocce ball, corn hole and croquet. Others simply visited with one another, while the children took advantage of the fun-filled play equipment of the park. Of course, no one was safe from an occasional unexpected cold douse from a squirt gun.
