Good Food and Good Neighbors

This last Saturday, November 2nd, First Congregational opened its doors to provide space for the Islamic Center of Winona’s curry dinner fundraiser. It was a beautiful evening of good food and good neighbors. Thank you to the volunteers who came out to help and to everyone who came for a meal to support needed repairs for the Islamic Center. Here are a few pictures of the evening:

Students from the WSU Muslim Student Association, along with members from the Islamic Center served the meal to all of the guests
Our new COEXIST flag was a great symbol of why we are eager to open our doors and welcome everyone!
