‘Super Family Fun Night’ helps Connecticut church reach community

Super Family Fun Night helped members of Gallup Hill Baptist Church, Ledyard, reach its community with a grill and a variety of lawn games.

“The event was right after school ended and the state of Connecticut was just reopening and removing the mask mandates, so it was nice to actually see everyone’s faces,” said Pastor Kyle Dykes said of the summer outreach.

The church also used its Upward basketball league and American Heritage Girls programs to reach the children and youth.
