Summer Solstice Festival

 

Please Join Us

for Episcopal City Mission’s

Annual Family Fun Picnic!

 

NEW LOCATION!
Friday, June 22, 2012

5:30 – 8:30 pm

Grace Episcopal Church

514 E. Argonne, Kirkwood

 

Episcopal City Mission has been serving those less fortunate in the St. Louis area since 1894.  Since 1913, we have not missed a year of being present for the children in detention.  We are very proud of our three chaplains and the programs that they provide for the young people who are in the detention facilities.  All of the funds raised at the summer picnic will be used to provide hope and healing to these children.

We hope you will join us for this fun-filled family event.  The ticket price of $15 for adults and $5 for children ages 5-12 includes dinner, beverages, and entertainment.  There is a children’s area with face painting, artwork, games, cotton candy, and sno-cones.   Once again, the “ECM Revue” will provide entertainment on the stage in Grace’s fellowship hall.  You won’t want to miss the musical talents of ECM Board members, Bill Wolff and the Rev. Brooke Myers.

There is a silent auction where you will be able to find great deals on Cardinal tickets, St. Louis Repertory tickets, MUNY tickets, a day of sailing, restaurant gift certificates, and much more.   Bring some friends and have a great time at this family event for all ages.
