Last year over 160 people from four area churches (Akron First Seventh-day Adventist, St. Paul Catholic, Firestone Park United Methodist and Firestone Park Presbyterian) met at Firestone Park for the first annual community church picnic. As the picnic began, each pastor had a few words to share with the group. There were various games which everyone enjoyed and then it was time to eat the delicious food prepared by each church, followed by more games. After the games, we visited and socialized with one another, and got to know more of the people from each church congregation.

The Firestone Park Community Center is at 1480 Girard Street, Akron, OH 44301-2108. Click here for a map. A link to the event on Facebook can be found here.
