Special Needs Class at Rivermont Baptist Church celebrates 50 years

Published

on

On April 3, 2022, the Rivermont Baptist Church will celebrate the 50th Anniversary of the Blue Bird Special Needs Bible class.

Our publisher Mike McCool recently spoke with Arlene Keifer in her home about the Blue Bird class. Arlene Keifer started this class, but she points out she had lots of help over these past 50 years.

Bluebirds are symbolic of joy and happiness; their spirits firmly believe in spreading joy everywhere they go, and this is what the Blue Class had done.

The Blue Birds Class ( Special Needs ) welcomes all ages. Rivermont Baptist Church invites you to attend this celebration.
