Way to go Molino Park El. School. Good job by the 4th grade class, The program was well done. Good job Sarah, Stewart and Raeleigh. Thanks to Ms. McDonald, teachers and volenteers for their time and work they put in for the students and the program.
“On the Radio” was a delight to see! I enjoyed seeing/hearing the talent of the students as they shared their performance. Molino Park faculty, parents and students thank you for partnering with Aldersgate UMC to bless families in our Molino community with this food drive!
What a fantastic performance by the 4th graders! 2908 items donated in a down economy and lots of people struggling. I am very proud to live in Molino and be a part of Aldersgate UMC.
