st-b-meth-church.JPGSt. Bethlehem United Methodist Church is holding a day-long fundraiser on Saturday, September 29, to benefit F.U.E.L., Helping Hands, and A Room at the Inn, three programs with mission of providing food to local children, food for the homeless, and other services.

The day’s events begin with a breakfast, and continue with a flea market, an auction at 1 p.m., and a country store marketing baked goods, canned goods, cookbooks and more.

A carnival with plenty of inflatables and bouncy things will provide plenty for children of all ages to do and a BBQ dinner will be served from 4-6 p.m. for just $7 per person. A talent show will be held during the BBQ.

The church is located at the corner of Rossview Road and Russellville Pike.
