Easter Scavenger Hunt Through Ballantyne
For many churches, creativity has been key throughout the pandemic in 2020 and so far in 2021. Instead of doing the traditional Easter Egg Hunt we have done in past years, this year Light of Christ United Methodist Church is hosting an Easter Scavenger Hunt throughout the Ballantyne area.
The Easter Scavenger Hunt will be on Saturday, March 27. Everyone can start any time between 11:00 am - 1:00 pm at Light of Christ Methodist Church (9106 Bryant Farms Road Charlotte, NC 28277). You will then be given clues involving the Easter story from a Light of Christ volunteer at each stop taking you to seven different places within a 5-mile radius. The Easter Scavenger hunt will end with a sweet treat from Crumbl in Stonecrest. This event is free for all families in the community!
Fish fry dinners available
St. Therese of the Child Jesus Parish, Altoona, will hold Lenten Fish Fry Dinners from 4 to 7 p.m. Fridays during Lent through March 26, at Father Kelley Hall on 25th Avenue and Fifth Street.
The menu includes choice of baked or fried fish, choice of two sides and dessert. Cost is $10 per dinner. Curbside order and delivery service will be from the side door on Fifth Street.
Orders will also be accepted by calling 814-330-9582 or 814-369-0798, with the pickup site approached through the main parking lot of the church to the side lot of Father Kelley Hall.
