Help Support Our Youth at the State Fair! First Friends is looking for volunteers to help run the Dairy Bar at the Indiana State Fair on Saturday, August 9—our biggest youth group fundraiser of the year! Choose from two shifts: the morning shift of 8:00am–3:30pm, or the evening shift of 3:00pm–10:00pm. Volunteers work a window, run a register, or wrap sandwiches. It’s fast-paced, fun, and makes a big impact. Perks include free admission to the fair, all-day Dairy Bar treats, and a great time with a great team! Sign up now to join the fun! Questions? Contact the office at office@indyfriends.org.

Photo Directory Sessions – August 11 & 12 ~ Mark your calendars! We’ll be holding photo sessions at the meetinghouse on August 11 and 12 for a new First Friends Photo Directory. The session is free and includes a complimentary 8x10 photo. Bring your family—this is a great chance to get a family photo taken! You’ll also have the opportunity to purchase additional prints or digital images if you wish. We encourage everyone to participate—having a complete directory helps us stay connected as a community and makes it easier to learn names, faces, and grow in fellowship.
