The Connections team would like to thank everyone who came out and supported our first annual Chili Cook-Off event on Sunday! We hope you had a great time tasting and fellowshipping! A huge thank you to every team that registered, we could not have held this event without you. And a special thank you to everyone who helped with set up, serving and clean up, you are greatly appreciated!
Drum Roll……The winning chili was “Jail House Chili” made by Team #6 “Giddy Up Gang”, Captain-Becky Ossefoort and Team-Jeff & Amy Stratton and Robert & Angela Sneller. Congratulations! They received a traveling trophy and $1,585 was raised for local non-profits. Of the proceeds, $50 was donated to Southwest MN Christian Schools and $200 to Luverne Public Schools to support those needing help with their hot lunch accounts and $1,335 was donated to Service Over Self, a community youth helping hands ministry that happens this summer. Again, thanks for investing in our church and in our community! – The Connections Team
