Meet the ladies ministering to us at the picnic:

Additionally, she has written multiple songs and performed with music groups at multiple concerts, fundraisers, worship nights, and other events.
Christie met her husband, Hector, on the Sugar Grove worship team, and the two of them have enjoyed serving together in both worship and in youth ministry. They were married in November of last year and currently live in Goshen. Christie works full time as a certified ASL Interpreter for a non-profit organization called United Health Services based in Granger, IN.

Isabella is 18 and is heading to Grand Canyon University in Arizona this fall. Ilyana will be a junior in high school and is planning to join YWAM when she graduates.
The Tallman family has a passion for travel and for helping others… they especially like it when those two things combine!

Picnic Details
Ladies, we invite you to join us at Picnic at the Pavilion on Saturday, August 3rd from 11:00 to 1:00. We are looking forward to a great time together as we are ministered to by two of our own ladies. Christie Najera will be leading us in a special time of worship and we’ll be hearing an amazing “God at Work” testimony from Sheena Tallman. It’s going to be a great time together as we deepen our relationships with one another and our Lord. A delicious lunch will be served and drink services will be provided by The Electric Brew! We hope you can join us and connect with other women of our church.
The cost is $5 per person and due to some of the content in Sheena’s testimony the picnic is for ladies ages 14 and older.
