2022 Summer Arts Festival Slush Booth

Picture
The Missions Committee has been busy getting ready for the Slush Booth at the Arts Festival which will take place July 9-10. The money raised will go to the UMCOR Disaster Relief, Solar Oven Partners, and assisting with youth mission trips.
We need the congregation’s help to make this a success. We need people to pick strawberries at Sanderson Gardens, help make the slush, and most of all, to volunteer their time working in the booth!
Sign-up sheets are in the Narthex at the Welcome Center on Sundays through July 3, or choose the links below to sign up for the different tasks.

Strawberry Picking and Preparation – now to July 

You can pick strawberries (no charge) at Sanderson Gardens (47657 US HWY 14, Aurora, SD  57002). 
  1. Pick at least an ice cream bucket full of firm, ripe berries.
  2. Wash the berries, dry them and remove the green leaves from the stem end.
  3. Place the berries individually on a cookie sheet (or other flat surface) and freeze them. 
  4. Once frozen, place the berries in a 1 gallon Ziploc bag and bring them to the church for storage. Place them in the freezer in the church basement no later than Wednesday, July 6th.
