Snacks Worthy of the Big Football Game
at the Brannan’s. (And those that are NOT!)
Harriet Plyler brings us Harriet’s Florida Kitchen detailing her version of the 7 Layer Dip with Guac.
Perfect for football game day (or anytime, really) snacking. No matter who your team is, you need this layered taco dip … featuring the Barefoot Contessa’s guacamole – maybe the best on the planet. Also, terrible ideas for healthy snacks exposed by Harriet!
Annual Meeting of the Congregation Sunday, Feb. 23rd following Worship
Join us for the Annual Meeting where we will receive the End of Year Reports from each Committee, update reports from the Admin & Building Committee on renovations, and Interim Pastor renewal information.
Information Packets will be available on February 16th at Worship, or can be requested via email.
Score some condensed soup for Souper Bowl Sunday to feed kids of End 68.
The Super Bowl will be here before you know it. While we all enjoy the pricey commercials and the big game, some children here in Tampa who are served by End 68 Hours of Hunger will not be lucky enough to have a get-together or extra snacks. Let’s help warm their winter by collecting soup. Think of soups kids would love to eat (not cream soup) and condensed like Campbell’s so it isn’t so heavy. Bring your soup with you on Souper Bowl Sunday, Feb. 9 … to church or to the party!
Please join us Sunday for the premiere showing of
