True Life Church will hold a Yard Sale Friday, April 12, and Saturday, April 13.
Items will include tub, toilet, furniture, LED sign, riding mower, double oven, microwave, kitchen cabinets, furniture, lots of clothes, shoes, and misc. items.

Several weeks ago, we had a gas problem at home. The CPW (Greer Commission of Public Works) crews responded and went to work.

They were very courteous, nice, and professional while correcting the problem.

So, thanks to CPW crews involved.

Thanks,
Bennie Cantrell
