Young at Heart Fellowship
Saturday, February 22 | 7p | Salisbury House (4025 Tonawanda Dr Des Moines)
Mark your calendars for a terrific, fun evening with the Young at Heart group (singles 60+)! We will convene at the Salisbury House to watch “Love Letters” by AR Gurney. This is a play that retells the story of two childhood friends whose lifelong relationship is entirely conveyed through love letters they exchanged over decades. The story reveals their hopes, dreams and disappointments as they navigated separate lives through marriage, careers and personal struggles.
Play starts at 7pm, doors open at 6:30pm. You can meet everyone at the Salisbury House, or you can opt to ride the bus. The bus will leave the church at 6pm sharp. Cost is $15 per ticket. You must purchase your ticket online here.
Contact Mary Skaggs, Judy Everhart or the church office (515-254-9094) to let them know you are attending. This will be a great evening! We look forward to seeing all of you!
