Hymns for the Hungry sings out Sept. 18
Hymns for the Hungry will fill the Bowie Community Center with high-energy music on Sept. 18 for the eighth annual event to support the local food ministry.
The program will be from 6-8 p.m. on Sept. 18. Admission is $1.
Guests will enjoy music from 10 different churches and organizations. Meal deals will include a hot dog, chips and a drink for $5. Pick a dessert for $1.
Other activities will include a cake auction, plus drawings for gift cards to area food establishments and grocery/gas stores.
All proceeds will go directly to God’s Table, which is an outreach food ministry provided by First Free Will Baptist Church. It is open six nights a week and feeds 75-100 people each night.
Make plans to attend this very important fundraiser after it returns after a two-year COVID shutdown.
As North Texas finally transitions towards cooler temperatures, community water needs change as well.

Use these tips from the Upper Trinity Groundwater Conservation District to winterize your house and well, all while saving a few gallons.
Now is the time to check fixtures in your home for leaks or moisture loss.
