Last Saturday, students from the University of Texas and Texas A&M came to Salado for one purpose -- work on community projects.
And work they did!
Part of the day was spent in Pace Park; the remainder of the day was spent on College Hill. Bill Kinnison said, "These students were a great help. They worked very hard which helped us greatly.
The students unanimously said how much they enjoyed Salado. They were especially interested in the history of College Hill. For students to attend college when going to college was only for a few fascinated them.
On Sunday, the youth led the worship service for the Church of Christ. Sitting on the front pew, they led music, sang, prayed, read Scripture, and delivered the sermon. The service was inspiring and beneficial.
After church, everyone met in the fellowship hall for lunch -- a great home-cooked lunch complete with fried chicken.
Ray Don Macintosh, youth director, deserves a huge "thanks" for arranging the students to come. He also arranged for the work projects.
Below are some of the students in the church fellowship hall standing in front of a Texas and Texas A& M Bulletin Board.
Where else in Texas did a group of college students from Texas and Texas A&M come together to work on community projects, lead a Church of Christ worship service, and eat a great lunch?
Only in Salado! Such a very special village!
